There was a water leaking underneath my car. My A/C is not working but why there was a leak? My thermostat gauge becoming near to H? It just suddenly happened.

Hello, I am Danny.

You might just have a coolant leak if you do not think it is condensation dripping from the A/C system (you say A/C is not working). It could be leaking from numerous places/connections so I suggest having the cooling system pressure tested. Most auto parts stores have a tool loaner program that will rent you the tester. It will pressurize the system without the engine running and you will be able to see where the leak is coming from. Be sure to have water or coolant in it. I have attached a tutorial showing you what is involved. Hope this helps and feel free to ask any questions if needed. Thanks for using 2CarPros.com.
