I need to clean my A/C evaporator core, but don't know where it is. Anyone know?

 

Inside the HVAC assembly under the dash.

 

Is it accessible without removing the dash? Possibly from behind the glove box?

 

Only replaced the cabin filter once, and never looked for the evap on the TL, but when the cabin filter is replaced it may be seen, and once again, not familiar with the TL, but on certain cars, sometimes the blower motor can be removed and the evap can be cleaned. I know both the filter and blower motor require the removal of the glove box on the TL, so next time you're in there take a look.
Maybe someone more familiar will chime in.

Here's another one:

Nope. The blower motor and cabin filter are in a housing separate from the evap core. The evap core resides in another housing. The two housings are obviously connect by a duct.

Major work to gain access to the evap core.

To dangeroso - Why do you feel that you must clean the evap core ?

 

there is a spray stuff you drill an access hole in the evap cover to shoot in and kill mold and crud
Or you can spray lysol in the vents and inlet vent

also turn ac off a few blocks from home with fan on high to dry moisture from the vents

Or get a `charcoal added`- cabin air filter to remove smells-
an old cabin air filter may be the source of many bad smells!
Supposed to replace that every year- but dealer gets $150 for a 20$ 30 minute diy
meaning a hard sell,, few cars ever had it done before you got it used

 

Well here's an update.

I was using the KlimaClean, which does have a hose, but I wanted to know where the core actually was before I started indiscriminantly shoving hoses through vents.

With the glove box out, I was able to trace the passenger vent and center vents to a box just left of the center of the dash, which I believe to be the core.

The KlimaClean worked great. Totally killed the mildew smell coming from my vents.
