My AC stoped working this week, in my 2 month old less than 600 miles, 03L! Does anyone know what could have happened?

Maybe it's a simple fix, i can't see how it would stop working so soon! It just blows air.

under warrenty, take it to dealer. Probably a leak or something.

 

I hate to take it to the dealer! I may have to leave it for a day or so. But guess thats what i gotta do anyway.

yeah i hear ya, sorry i don't know a/c too well, but my guess is that its not something you wanna do yourself.

Demand a loaner at least.

 

Well at least they give you a free loaner car. One of the percs of owning a SVT vehical

 

seems 03 fords are havin issues
my dads 03 expy went in 5 times for the ac frezzing up and my bros 03 f250 with the new 6.0 the ac quit twice now

 

dang that sucks! mine blows the coldest air possible!!! way better than my last car (ls1 camaro)

I dont really use the AC anyway! But it needs to be fixed.

If i were to keep the truck for many years, i would just have it taken out. But i may trade it in for a Gen 3 L, so its best to get it fixed.

You could check the fuses and check the wiring at the compressor. I recently had the compressor clutch wiring get chewed up on a different Ford product.

 

Check and see if your compressor clutch is engaging..

 

mine sometimes make an *interesting* scent when you turn it on..only dooes it a few times a week...but I have no idea what it could be...smells kinda like glue in a way..

If I were you I would take it to the dealer and not waste any of my own time trying to figure it out... If I still had a warranty that is

 

I had a coolant line for the A/C spring a leak due to the fact that it had been rubbing on the edge of the passenger inner fender liner for some time. Factory F up in my situation...

 

CCCPL:

Are you saying the AC does not "turn on" or that the cooling
capacity is poor or gone...besides checking fuses check the relays...your owners booklet should show the location areas...
push down gently on all the relays and fuses...at least that will
eliminate one area of possible trouble...good luck!

 

Mine makes an odd chirping sound every so often, but seems to work just fine...

It turns on, and blows fine! But no cool air at all.
