AC Condensation

[RedDakooter05]

It'd be hilarious if the drain is just dumping the condensation over the frame rail where it just sits and rusts...

I’m in SoCal and I see it a lot.

WTH, some of us doesnt have the condescension and some do. This is definitely weird.

The wife's GLK does something similar so that no water drips on the garage floor. I haven't really noticed any from the Ranger. I'll have to pay closer attention but haven't seen anything on the floor except for the nasty tailpipe droppings

That's all I got on my garage is the tail pipe dropping.

I actually had a massive puddle under my ranger in RSM the other weekend after sitting for a while. Ours will eventually drop condensation, but I have noticed that it does seem to take longer to do, unlike other vehicles (even my other Fords).

As I understand it, many Manufacturers attempt to place the AC Condenser drain over an exhaust manifold so it evaporates immediately and does not drip on the ground.

With my Highlander, I see lots of AC condensation but with the same weather (yesterday was 114 degrees with about 15 percent humidity) I never see any from the Ranger. I find that strange. I have no indication that the drain hose is plugged.

I hope I never see 114 temps like you hope not to see my 15 degree temps ?

True John. If I want to play in the cold during the winter, I drive into the Sierras, and then, when I have had enough, I drive out of the Sierras to the valley where it rarely gets down to 32 degrees.

I don’t run in recirculate mode maybe that makes a difference.

It will take a little time for the condensation to reach the floor. It drips just above the transmission into a pocket, the pocket has to overflow before you'll see it on the ground. The pocket is visible from under the hood, if you look behind the engine you won't be able to see the drain tube but you should see the drip & puddle.

I am battling an issue with the condensation from the evap lines in the cab dripping & soaking the carpet. Local dealer has performed the tsb but it's still happening.

Thanks for the info, hope they can fix your issue soon. One of my co-worker had a Ranger as well and his AC condensation is dripping on the floor when used.

Me either.?

Mine doesn't matter, there is no dripping at all.

Wow even in weather we have right now? Try remote start for 10 minutes. That’s when I notice it.

Do you see the AC condensation dripping underneath your rigs when using the AC?
On my other SUV, I can see the condensation dripping when AC is used but not on the Ranger. I had the Ranger for over 2 years and just noticed this in last couple of months since it's been super hot lately and AC is at full blast.

It's always hot and dry here and I've never seen any under mine either. Like you I only see the tailpipe dripping but until now I've really never gave it much thought. Thanks, something else to ponder now! ? ?

Make sure there's no fuel in your oil...or install a tail gate damper as soon as possible...

This has to be the reason! ?
