Default Drowning in my 1997 RR

The air conditioning is on full time and leaks water on the drivers side. Do you know where the fuse is to pull the plug on it until I get to the bottom of it ? (like where the fuse box is & its number )

You can unplug the wire at the compressor, and the system can't generate any more condensate. The drains are visible from below on the side of the transmission tunnel. Poke with slim stiff wire. Download the RAVE below and you will have tech and owner's manuals for easy bed time reading.

Why not just clear your a/c drain tubes?
Under the truck, one on each side of the transmission bell housing, they are hard to find as they are almost flush with the floor, they have a "X" on them.

Buss did just that....great help thanks to everybody...now I can get to someone who knows things.. buy the way....
I just became a member.I belong to 14 forums( for my car care product)but this is the first one just for me!!! Last week I bought a 1997 Range Rover 4.6 HSE for $3000, very strong motor, new tires, new exhaust pipes, but -- nothing else works. Seriously. The air conditioning is on full time and leaks water on the drivers side. Drivers side door will only open from the outside. The back hatch won't stay up. The sun roof will not open or close. And at least 10 other things are just flat out broken. The first thing I'll be looking for is there are no visors, handles or attachments on the headliner, including lights -- so I'd like to start by finding those items first. Also need a 1997 owner's manual. Please feel free to let me know all the stuff you can get for that year, as I think I'm going to be needing a lot of little things. Thanks!
