My 1995 Ford Escort only blows out hot/warm air.

Jul 24, 2004 2 Replies

My escort only blows out hot/warm air and it has been 100 degrees here. I have checked the refridgerant and that?s oaky. I?m trying to do this myself if I can because they charge so much for air conditioning just to look at it. The radiator is full and has coolant, the engine isn?t getting hot, I have already had to change the fan motor for engine, so the engine is okay.



Please help. Female confused! Thanks

How did you check the refrigerant? It takes pressure and temp gauges and know how. Considering the charge is good and pressures are good, It could be the blend door or it's related actuator is not working and allowing hot air from the heater core to mix with the cold air. John

find a nice person that understands auto a/c.

dont lead them on, or anything.

if we told you what to look for and you found it, then what?

i'm not trying to be a smart guy, it's just a practical consideration... a long term conversation to start from scratch.

A decent shop would charge you nothing to lift the hood and check a few basic things... like if the compressor is running.
