Getting rid of HVAC odor

BrandonT · 06-19-2012, 07:03 PM

And the story continues. I found the evaporator drain house on teh passenger side, smelled fine, and ran some water through it to make sure it drains. Pushed a Q tip into the nipple the hose connects to and it smells fine too, not wet. Checked the aspirator hose on the other side and it seems fine. Looked at the fresh air intake, everything good there too. I don't know where this moisture pools. Since I have access I'm considering giving it a quick shot of Lysol into the evaporator and let it sit for a bit, than dry it out. If that doesn't work Nissan can figure it out, they can replace the whole damn HVAC as far as I'm concerned.
