Default AC Leaks inside

My 2000 C5 just yesterday started leaking condensate into the passenger footwell. I took of the drain hose from the blower motor and blew air into the engine compartment. I reassembled the drain connection. I then noticed that the water is coming out of the bottom of the blower motor. Anyone run into this before? Thanks

Yes, your condensation tube is packed. Just went through this last summer. Just clean tube out.

I had issue with water was leaking inside from the blower motor and the drain tube was clear. Had debris inside the the Evap case. Had to remove the blower motor to clean debris from housing.

The A/C condensate drain is located on the firewall below the passenger side engine head by a bit. Best seen and serviced from below. It is a black rubber elbow seemingly hanging on the firewall and it is easily pulled off the condensate drain tube sticking through the firewall and retracted by hand for cleaning.
