They do that when they get low on freon. You are suppose to have a low pressure switch that will cut out the compressor when that happens. If someone has jumpered that switch, then the lines and the compressor can freeze up.
You need to take the car to a shop and have the leak fixed, and the right amount of freon installed. good luck.

If this water touches the interior the unit collectively as the compressor is pumping the freon, the liquid will freeze on the steel aspects. you will in all probability ought to earnings the drain and loose it up. as quickly as you get rid of the condensation it could have no longer something to freeze up on......
