    I have a 97 Peterbilt 379 and water is leaking inside my cab from the AC. The drain tube is clear and ac works good. Can anyone point me in the right direction of how I can fix it?

    Did you open the box that houses the evap coil? There could be a crack and water likes to take the path of least resistance. There could also be something blocking/partially blocking the drain.

    Triple check the drain tube. It sounds like it's still clogged.

    Had to reseal my plastic box - drain was clear, I have ‘95.

    They’re a problem.
