My hoses behind the glove box are condensating after I turn the air off, is that normal??? Any thoughts???

Re: Another A/C question.

I have not seen this happen but if your discharge air is really cold then I believe that it is possible if the humidity in the cab is high enough.

My hoses are made of the fabric like originals.I have no problems. If your using the plastic after market I'm sure they would sweat more when they warm up. IMHO

Yes they can, the evaporator condensates so can the lines to it . You could wrap the hoses with pipe insulation to prevent this from happening.
