A/C on 97 Explorer blows warm/hot - aide mois!
The A/C system on my 1997 Ford Explorer has been odd for some time. At one time it would only blow cold, regardless of where the controls were set. Now it will only blow hot/warm, even when on Max A/C.
Someone once fiddled about behind the dashboard through the opening of the glove compartment and changed it from one to the other. I am not bothered about getting heat - we live in Southern Arizona - but would like to have real cold air. The temperatures are in the high eighties and nineties and will soon head for the 100s, and above!
Last year the freon was recharged, but despite the high cost of that - $120.00 - it only blew a little cooler.
Can you suggest anything that I can do (or can have done) to get cold air coming out?
It is a 5.0 litre V8 engine Eddie Bauer special Explorer with 198,000 genuine miles on the clock, and runs as sweet as a nut.
Thank you for considering my plea.
