Car Forum / Chrysler Cars / July 20062003 T&C AC?
My aunt stopped by with her Town and Country to ask why it was dripping by the right rear wheel. It was condensation from a cold metal tube (about 20mm) alongside a warm metal tube (about 10 mm). At the back a fitting joined them. It seemed like air conditioning but I didn't understand why evaporation should be taking place outside the vehicle. Farther forward, two hot 20 mm tubes ran alongside with these two. I've searched the web but haven't found a description of AC on a Chrysler van. What are these tubes? Is the van equipped with rear A/C?? If so, then the tubes could be refridgerant tubes running to the rear condenser. Not that I am an expert or anything. >My aunt stopped by with her Town and Country to ask why it was dripping >by the right rear wheel.

I read online that these vans have two or three zones of AC. I suppose those tubes have something to do with it. Without knowing how the AC works, I don't know what those tubes are. > Is the van equipped with rear A/C?? If so, then the tubes could be > refridgerant tubes running to the rear condenser.

The refrigerant liquid and suction lines to/from the rear air conditioning. The big one is condensing because it is colder than the dew point of the air around it. > My aunt stopped by with her Town and Country to ask why it was dripping > by the right rear wheel.

I guess the evaporation was occurring inside the vehicle, and the "connector" I saw under the vehicle was part of that unit. What about the two 20 mm tubes that ran alongside these tubes forward of the wheel well? When I touched them I immediately pulled my fingers away because they seemed burning hot. If there's also a heater back there, maybe those tubes held coolant. > The refrigerant liquid and suction lines to/from the rear air > conditioning.
