Trying to recharge my AC in my 2009 Mazda 6 but noticed refrigerant "leaking" out from area by passenger headlight. Any idea what part this could be from? Condenser?

SOURCE: leak onto floor passenger side from neck of ac drain through firewall

It's not your heater core. If your heater core is out it would leak antifreeze. My wife's 97 Grand Cherokee had the same problem. It is condensation from your AC coming leaking through a round hole in the AC unit at the firewall. Pull the carpet back and dry out underneath it, there will be a lot of water and we had to leave the carpet pulled back with a fan blowing on it all weekend to dry out. I fixed this about 8 years ago so if I remember correctly, the was a plastic part of the AC at the firewall that had a hole in it that the water was coming out of, I could see leaves and debris in the hole so I know it was part of the drain system. I cleaned out what debris I could and used a cone shaped peice of rubber and twisted it in to plug the hole and tapped over the plug to ensure that it wouldn't back out with vibrations, etc. After you dry everything off start the engine and turn the AC on max, you'll be able to see the where the water is leaking from after the AC gets cold. Hope this helps, it drove us nuts for a year before we figured it out and the wet carpet smell wasn't pleasant.

never worked on a hummer but rule of the day is that there always is a drain on the firewall on the engine side. usually a small rubber hose about two inches long direced downward. Usually you can stick your finger in there and clear it out. Don't shove anything hard into it or you can punch a hole in the evaporator core.

SOURCE: water from the ac is leaking into passenger area

TOUCH DOWN with leaky ac into passenger compartment solved!
Discovered on left side of firewall of trailblazer a series of ac hoses leading into compartment. Bottom left area are 4 hoses and one drain portal. I removed drain stem 4" long and compress bottom of portal with finger and condensation started pouring out. A total of 2 quarts of clear liquid condensation came pouring out. Tested ac afterwards and drain portal is flowing freely underneath vehicle.

Testimonial: "did the same thing before I got your fix...that was it. drain was clogged..thanks!"

Then the light has a leak and moisture is getting in.
