I just bought a '03 Element EX with a 5 speed. It has 81k miles on it and is a hoot to drive. I have done a ton of searching and reading about things concerning the AC. The AC has the typical musty smell coming from it and makes the car smell like a basement. At first I thought it was because the car had sat for a while at the car lot, but after what I read here I think the drain plug is clogged.
Things I have done:
Changed cabin filters
Sprayed air cleaner into the hole where the filters go
Checked drain plug, no water comes out
Blew compressed air into the drain plug, still no water.
I started to take the dash apart and was only able to get here. I have no idea how to get this gigantic one piece out.
How do I remove the passenger Air bag?
How to I unbolt the plastic from something underneath.
I have it loose on both sides, but I can't get it loose in the center.
Thanks
