    So would a 22k resistor work better and not freeze up the evap like the 33k? Just wondering because my 33k froze up in like 10 mins and felt like the engine dragged with this resistor on.

    @tryssulli Рік тому

    I wanna do this, because I’ve confirmed this is my issue with my cars air conditioning system. However, my only concern by bypassing the sensor, won’t this cause the a/c compressor to continuously run without proper regulation and possibly causing my evaporator to freeze and or potentially cause the a/c compressors to get worn out quicker?

    • @chrish7255
      @chrish7255 Рік тому

      Yes, if you have the AC on the compressor will run continuously. If doing a long journey I will turn off say every 20-30 minutes and run ambient air through. Because there is a little bit of ice in the evaporator this has the double benefit of cooling that ambient air and also defrosting the evaporator. You are right, a little bit of manual intervention will be required on longer journeys. But if living somewhere hot, like say Texas, if pull outside air in it’s difficult to freeze on a hot sunny day.

    • @chrish7255

      Probably not because you applying a certain resistance to a certain part of the circuit, not sure the sensor will have the same resistance. If you are trying to replace the sensor you could check a wiring diagram and see if it works. I think unlikely because then you will have two sensors in parallel circuit.

    Did this and it worked perfectly. I had to disconnect the battery. When the battery was reconnected, the key was in the on position and the A/C was on with the resistor still in place. Something must have blown because the hack no longer works and the mode actuator doesn't switch from vent to def or floor. I tried doing the fix again nothing. I put the wiring back to original nothing. Checked fuses and relays. Help!

    • @triggscain328
      @triggscain328 Рік тому

      I checked as much as I could with the fuses, relays and wiring. I wanted up taking it to a mechanic who changed out the evaporator but it had lingering issues. The control would not switch between defrost, vent and floor. I was told I had a bad head unit. Bought and changed it 3xs thinking I had a bad unit (the reviews say it's a possibility on the aftermarket ones from Autozone). Took it back to the mechanic who did the same thing and also changed the actuator. Nothing worked. My mechanic gave up saying it was probably a wiring issue. I took it to Ford. They said it was the evaporator. I tried to explain what my mechanic had done, but they insisted. I agreed to let them pull the dash. They changed the evap sensor, 2 actuators and a bracket. Still didn't work. They changed the head unit. That didn't work and they put my old one back. I kept arguing with them that it was a wiring issue. They said it wasn't. A week later they said my car was ready. Turns out it was a wiring issue. But they didn't tell me that until I asked them a million times. They would not say what they did and at that point the service advisor became very short w me. They did give me a break on the labor rate but it still cost me $1800 not including the head unit I bought from zone for $200, pluss all of my time without a car. If you are good at tracing and replacing wire, you will probably find the wire that the hack was done on is fried.. at least one of them. If you can run a replacement wire, it would probably be the best place to start. Sadly, had I taken it to my mechanic in the first place, he knows a trick, I'm assuming others do too, to cut an access panel under the dash without pulling it. They can replace that way. Would have cost about $200 if I had done that. Live and learn I guess. Good luck to you.
