heater

A/C wasn’t blowing very hot, my friend who’s more experienced in A/C said we should add Freon. So we did and as we were putting it in, the engine started to slow down and almost die then click and go back up while idling. The words of my friend who, knows more about A/C since I’m clueless says...

I have a 2006 mercury mountaineer, 4.0. I am in the process of replacing the heater control valve and noticed the coolant line that runs behind the alternator and to the thermostat is very rusty/ needs replacing. I can't find the same part in a parts diagram or on rockauto etc. Has anyone...

Suddenly, from one day to the next, my 2006 Ford Explorer overheated. The mechanic says that I need a new heater hose which is like "one giant octopus". Cost for labor and part is $650. Does any of this seem normal?

2009 Ford Explorer XLT 4x4 200412 miles Heater only works sometimes. If there is a loud flapping/clacking sound coming from the lower part of the center of the dash, then I know the blower will blow hot air. If the sound is a light clicking or no sound at all, it blows air that same temperature...

Hey, I got a 1995 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer edition. when I turn the heat on high, it only blows cold air. I replaced the blend door actuator, and the tubes to the heater core are hot all the way to the firewall. the heater control valve bypass seems to be working and the engine is full of...

Hello, I have been having a heater issue and have reviewed most of the threads Ive seen regarding this but still not having any luck so I thought Id post. I have a 2001 2 door sport 4wd that i bought last oct. heater and AC worked when I bought it. During a trip in December I noticed my heater...

Hi everyone, new to this site and hope that I can get some great help from here. As stated, have a '06 Explorer, one day while doing preventative maintenance on my vehicle, I ended up looking behind the glovebox at the blower motor/heater blower assembly and noticed a build up of dust on the...

I have a couple of questions. 1. Which of the two hoses is the heater inlet hose? I am installing a prestone back-flush tee, and it needs to be on the inlet hose. 2. My heater control valve is not where I have seen in before on other similar vehicles (near the firewall). It is down close to...

hello! i have a 2016 xlt. Since new, i get cold air on drivers side floorboard. Been to the shop numerous times for troubleshooting. And they can never ‘reproduce’ the problem. I’m thinking it’s possibly a missing plug somewhere in the firewall. The cold air seems to come from higher in the...

I have a 99 Limited 4.0LSOHC with the EATC system. I discovered today that I have no heat. A/C works great and can switch over to defrost, panel or floor vents with no problem. I am not sure where to start looking for the problem as I have understood the blend door is a problem if you are...

Hello So I recently had my cabin fuse box replaced, which was not the problem it turns out. more on that in another post. After I got my car back the A/C heater defroster wont work in front. the one in the back works. When I turn it on and I am driving against the wind I do get a slight breeze...

Sooo... today my rear window wiper decided to just keep moving regardless of the switch position.. I pulled what was labeled in the owners manual as the fuse to rear wiper/washer fluid and sure enough the wiper did stop.. but now my directionals and heater won't work.... anybody experience...

I know there are several posts about heat issues with the explorers, but I never seem to find a definite answer. I know each issue is different so I have been brainstorming ideas. I have a 2001 Explorer XLT with 127,000 miles and the heat seemed to be working okay when the temp was in the 20's...

The heat in my 2007 Explorer Eddie Bauer 4.0L works great if i keep the heater valve zip tied in open position. I have vaccum tested the control valve and it holds vaccum. Where do i search next? blend door works great selector switch seems to do what i tell it. I believe there is a vaccum issue...

Hey guys I just bought a 1999 eddie that has some issues and I'm looking for some help. My heat keeps going off when i accelerate and comes back on when i stop. There are electrical isssues but those seem like easy fixes. Any help is greatly appreciated... Thanks

Howdy, I have a lot of coolant consumption. I have to fill up my overflow tank every month with fresh 50/50 because it just disappears. Surprisingly enough, I NEVER overheat. I drove 4 hours a couple weeks ago to this restaurant I wanted to take the old lady to and the truck ran great...

So, I have a 1997 AWD Mercury Mountaineer with the 5.0 V8 in it. My heat has been acting up lately. When I first start it (when it's completely cold) the air blows and gets up to temperature just fine. But when I stop and turn off the truck and start it back up again (like if I just got gas) the...

This issue started last year, but was less severe. If I start my truck to warm it up and let it sit and get hot the front heater does not produce any heat until I start to drive. The front heater core does not seem to be getting any coolant flow at idle. When I accelerate I can hear the...

Hi, I purchased a 1996 Eddie Bauer (5.0) and the air conditioner isn't cooling and when in "vent" mode it blows warm air. Could these issues be related? Should I start with the thermostat before having the A?C looked at? Thanks in advance for your responses.:us:

I"ve been slowly working on getting my heater and AC working. As part of that, I replaced the AC/Heater control deck in the cab using the instructions I found in the dash removal thread here: http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=248021&highlight=dash+remove When I went to...

Good afternoon all, I have been watching these forums quite a bit and have a massive collection of useful information that has saved me a ton of time. Now however I have an issue that is not covered (that I can find). I recently replaced my tensioner assembly and my idler pulley to get rid...

So 1992 Explorer XLT, never had an issue until yesterday. I live in saskatchewan so it gets damn cold here and driving down the highway yesterday (about 70mph) and suddenly my heater got very cold and my temp spiked into about the middle of the guage and the rpm went from about 2k to 2500 for...

So its a 98 ford explorer xlt. The heater is constantly on, coming lightly through the floor vents and defroster vents near the windshield. The blower speed knob works to change fan speed, but the knob to change temp does nothing and the directional knob to change vents does nothing. If it is...
