- 1997 Explorer Sport
Hey everyone, Happy Thanksgiving! I've been using this site since 2009, luckily my 97 Sport hasn't been problematic. This is an A/C issue...the cold-hot knob does nothing on my Explorer. If you move it to full heat and put the selector knob on Max AC it comes out the vents ice cold... however move the selector knob up one notch to AC and it will burn your facial hair off and that's even after putting the cold-hot knob to cold. There isn't anything wrong with my blend door though...defrost comes out the top of the dash, heat or cold comes out the floor, dash and floor, etc. For the life of me I can't figure out why it blows extreme heat on the normal AC position and the compressor is running but one twist to MAX AC and it comes out ice cold and the cold-hot knob is all the way over in the RED lol. Before anyone goes there... yes, I DID replace the A/C control unit as a whole with a used one from eBay...same exact thing. The heat is so hot I can only run it for a minute or two then my wife complains so I turn it off, then she gets cold and complains so I turn it back on... imagine that on a 4 hour trip from Dallas to Houston!! Someone please help LOL. Happy Thanksgiving to you all by the way.
