Ford A/C :: 2000 F250 Start Blowing Warm And Slightly Humid Air Then Suddenly Cold Air Come Back

I just bought a 2000 f250 diesel truck and am having problems with the ac. When I first turn on the ac it blows very cold and works perfectly but after about 5 or 10 minutes it will start blowing warm and slightly humid air for probably around 5 or 10 minutes and then suddenly the very cold air will come back. This cycle repeats over and over again and I'm not sure what is wrong.

Ford A/C :: 1991 - Warm Air Blowing / Compressor Will Come On And Go Right Back Off

To start I have a 1991 super duty with a 7.3 in it. I replaced the evaporator, dryer and orifice tube. I added 4 cans of Freon and the a/c still blew warm so I added another can same result. I put one of the throw away gauges on the truck and it read empty so now I'm mad thinking it all leaked out only other option I could think of was to replace the condenser so went to break the lines to change it and Freon came spewing out so I tightened the lines back up and added another can of Freon still warm.

I got good gauges and hooked them up to high and low sides. High side was reading 100+ and low side was around 100 maybe a little lower. Oh yeah the compressor will come on and go right back off. So I let some of the Freon out and dropped the pressure down to 50 the high side was still a little below 100 so I let a little more out and now there is no Freon in the system again.

The lines never got cold and the dryer stayed warm the whole time. The first time I put Freon in before I started replacing stuff the dryer would get ice cold. My only thought is maybe the compressor is bad but I was told it was just replaced but Freon was never put in it. Oh and when I put the new parts in I replaced the orings in the compressor and put new oil in the compressor.

Ford - Explorer :: Front A/C Stopped Blowing, But Back Seat Still Blow

My a/c stopped blowing from the front seats but the back seats still blow. My gut is saying that the blower motor has went out, because all my fuses that I've checked aren't blown. It's too hot for the blower to go out.

Ford Transmission :: 2006 F250 - Dipstick Blowing Out Of Tube Due To Back Pressure

Have a 2006 F-250 with 5.4 motor pulling a 25 ft house trailer. No issues until the towing began a couple weeks ago. Back pressure is building up in the transmission and it is blowing the dipstick out of the transmission tube and spraying fluid all over the place. Truck has 132k miles on it and last serviced @125k miles. No slippage. Fluid isn't burnt. Separate transmission heat gauge not registering hot and it is working - fuse not blown. The transmission does have an auxillary filter on it which is going to get changed tomorrow to see if that solves the problem. Transmission is Automatic. Not driving in 4th gear because of towing. Any thoughts what might be blocking to cause this pressure buildup?

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: 2006 - Electrical Malfunction - Back Light Works Intermittently - Blower Fan Stop Blowing?

My 2006 F150 was purchased by me in early 2009 with about 28,000 miles on it. It's an XLT crew cab 4X4 with the 5.4. Stock except for a leveling kit and an aftermarket head unit. It currently has about 59,000 miles and has been babied since I purchased it. About 3 years ago I started noting some issues:

A. Oil pressure dummy gauge is all over the place. Some times it will show no oil pressure. Other times it is all the way to the highest mark. Other times the needle has gone 180 degrees past where normal is and is actualy pointing straight down towards the floor.

B. Recently my alternator dummy gauge has started doing the same thing as my oil pressure gauge.

C. The backlight behind my odometer works intermittently, but mostly not at all.

D. My dome light will flicker when first turned on. It doesn't matter which door is opened or if the override switch it turned on. It takes several seconds to come on and will flicker like there is a poor connection somewhere, but stays on once its on.

E. Blower fan will occasionally stop blowing. Once the climate control switch is turned to off, then back to on it resumes working. This doesn't happen often, but does occasionally.

Fortunately, the truck has not left me stranded and I want to keep it that way. We are getting ready to sale my wife's Toyota and this will become her daily driver. I want to take care of any issues before she starts driving it. Are these all separate issues or is there one common issue which could be causing them all?

Ford A/C :: 2000 E150 - No Air Blowing Out Of Vents

My mother's 2000 E150 van isn't blowing any air out of the vents. It doesn't work on high. I can detect a small amount of air coming out of the defrost vents and the floor vents when it is on high. I just replaced the resistor after finding that it had melted and still no air. My mother said that the a/c would go on and off when she hit bumps.

Do you think maybe the fan isn't grounded so the resistor overheated and caused melting in the resistor plug? The plug looks exactly like the one in the middle of this webpage. Same pin melting location also. Ford Blower Motor Resistor Pigtail Replacement...

I ran out of time to work on my moms van because I am in law school and live 2 hours away. Assuming ground, blower, and fuse are all good (I'm checking those friday), what else could be the problem?

Ford A/C :: 2000 - 5.4 No Heat Blowing Cold Air?

I'm having the same issue as many others with the heat blowing cold air. I have read through the other post ad tried the blend door, actutator, vaccine lines, control ***, and both lines going in and out are hot to touch when warmed up. I am now lost!

Ford A/C :: 2000 Expedition - No AC At All / All Vents Blowing Hot Air

On my 2000 E.B. I have NO A/C at all. All vents on the dash, regardless of vent, floor, defrost, ETC all blow hot air, even with the A/C on Max A/C. Also, all the rear vents for the rear HVC blow WARM air as well. I have no A/C in the back either. I don't hear any flopping around under the dash going down the road and I have checked the A/C compressor with the unit on Max A/C and the clutch appears to be engaged and the compressor appears to be operating normally.

I have NOT YET checked the A/C lines or dryer to see if they get cold, I will check that tonight, but I expect them to be getting cold because the Compressor does not cycle on and off, it stays running pretty much all the time. It clicks off once and again, but not very often at all (such as the case would be if the system was low on freon).

So, if the A/C lines are getting cold (if they are not, I will know my problem is compressor related, likely anyway), what this problem could be? From what I've read, if the Front blows hot, yet the rear blows cold, it's a blend door actuator or broken blend door, but that is not my problem. I have no A/C at all, everything blows hot.

Ford A/C :: 2000 - Coolant Blowing Out Of Cap Randomly

Ongoing problem on my 2000 Expedition (5.4l, auto, EB, 4wd).

Every now and then it spews a good volume of coolant out the pressure relief cap of the coolant tank. On a long drive on the highway, stopped at a stop sign in town, backing the trailer into the driveway in cool weather - any random moment it can happen. It'll do it every day for a week, then be fine for three months, then out of nowhere again.

I've "burped" it many times; it's had multiple chemical flushes; manually cleaned out the reservoir to be sure there's no gunk in there..... I'm down to imagining some foreign object in the system that randomly gets stuck and blocks the rad inlet leaving only the reservoir cap for the pump to pump fluid out of.

Camry :: 2008 - LED Switch Back Keeps Blowing Fuses

I just got my led switch back lights in for my 08 camry. But I have run into a problem I have installed all four led signal lights (switch backs in the front and led ambers in the back) and the led flash relay for my car. What is happening is that the led will turn on for a couple of seconds and then the fuse for the signal lights burns out both the one under the dash and the one under the hood.

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 2000 - Fuse Keeps Blowing On

2000 Model, The fuse keeps blowing on this. I thought it was the cruise control fuse because the cruise kept not working and when I replaced fuse it would work. Only for a little though, then I looked at manual and it says the fuse is for the brake position switch. I am presuming this is just like the old days and that is the brake light switch under the dash. They use to have two wires now there is like five. Anyways I do not see any bare wires or anything that would blow a fuse, is it common for these switches to go out or what??

Golf V R32 :: Not Blowing Warm Air At Idle But Heat Comes Back Under Load?

My car is not blowing warm air at idle when warmed up. When under load driving the heat comes back then chills down when stopped at a light or traffic. I did a coolant flush by fill and gravity drain earlier this summer and have had zero issues with overheating or anything else. Could there be air in the heater core or is my water pump or thermostat failing?

Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: 2000 F250 Cab Heater Blowing / No Warm Air

This problem is on my son's 2000 F-250 5.4. It's into October and my son tells me he has no heat coming out of his vents. I figure it has to be the control valve that should be in the heater hose lines. Could be jammed closed or a vacuum line has come off the pot that controls the open close cycle. We open the hood and nowhere can we see a coolant control flow valve. It is so tight and dark under all that mess of wires, intake, air conditioner lines and whatever.

Just where should we be looking for the valve. Also it could be the vacuum line is unplugged on the dash, behind the warm/cool selector. And even there is a possibility that some doofus has removed something. He bought the truck this summer. So to get us on the right path, where we start looking for the flow control valve?

Ford - Explorer :: 2000 - Misfiring And CEL Came Back On

My neice bought a 2000 Explorer Sport back in November. Soon afterwards it developed a misfire and the CEL came on. I put on a new set of wires and a new set of plugs. I noticed when I replaced the plugs that the #3 plug was missing the ceramic near the electrode. I figured it was just a cheap Bosch plug and didn't give it much thought. The vehicle ran great.

Recently the misfire came back and the CEL came back on. When I pulled the plugs #3 had a cracked ceramic around the electrode, #4 was wet with fuel and not firing at all, and #6 was completely missing the ceramic around the electrode.

I replaced the plugs again, replaced the coil pack and cleaned the MAF sensor and it's running great again.

My question is, what would cause the ceramic to disintegrate on the plugs? There didn't seem to be any pinging or detonation. I replaced the coil pack because I thought maybe it was erratic, loading up on fuel and then causing a big bang and then destroying the plug. Are my thoughts way off? I want to make sure this is fixed so that it doesn't tear up anything else.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2000 - A/C Blowing Through Defrost Vent?

I have a 2000 f250 4x4 7.3 diesel. I had problems with my a/c and controls for sometime now. my a/c was blowing threw the defrost vent. I was told my blend door was bad. I bought a new blend door installed it,still doing the same thing. I was told to check my vacuum lines. I check them, they were bad. I replace my vacuum lines and my vac pump as well. that fixed my problem blowing threw the defrost vent. I can control my air flow from floor,dash vents and defrost vent. the problem I have, I not able to control my temperature when I turn my center from red to blue. It blows hot air and the air that is coming out of the vents isn't very strong at all.
