Well I pulled the blower motor yesterday but it was clean. I wound up pulling the evaporator unit out of the car. The box had 3 inches of water in it and was loaded with leaf particles, small twigs, and a layer of black sludge on the bottom of the box(probably from decomposition of leaves and dirt). The drain hole was clogged solid from the sludge. Once I cleaned it up, unplugged the drain hole and blew all the crap out of the evaporator itself, I reinstalled everything and recharged the A/C system. The car runs great, seem to get colder than before, and the water now drains out like it's supposed to instead of filling up the evaporator box and draining itself onto my floor and shorting out the ECM. The whole job from start to finish took me 2 hours. My Nissan Dealer told me it would be an eight hour job and cost $600.00 plus tax to do. Mmmm.............:rolleyes
