Alright, do to the high volume of requests, we are officially offering pre-built drop in units. The price is $162.38 after taxes. If you are interested email me at shane.d.spalding@gmail.com and we can get an order going. Thanks
Unfortunately, I'm not sure it will work on other vehicles. You can look into your setup, but the reason it works on these fords is due to there programming. They short cycle the compressor sooner than they need too, and it effects the ac drastically on high heat days. You would need an understanding of your model's programming to decide if that is a possibility for you.
Mine blows at 38° but air flow not hard enough but i finally fixed it now alot of air blows out ! I cut 2 square holes behind glove box with recipcle saw was very carefull to cut just enough on plastic only evaporator is so close to plastic and then i grabbed my water hose with tip needle sprayer on there and blasted all the dirt behind evap through coil with water a little bit at time cleaned flush it out then blew air in it with blow tip n air compressor and taped it bak up with adhesive foil tape and now it blows good cfm
How much resistance did you add, im trying a 5k, or a 10k, or a 15k. Trying to see how it feels. Did you increase the charge as well to offset the longer evap times?
First off, no R134 needs to be added. The stock system was plenty capable it was just programmed not to get as cold for fuel economy from my understanding. Secondly, the sweet spot for most people is between 300k and 500k ohms. This truck ended up at 328k on the potentiometer, and that's perfect when it's super hot out. I would highly suggest reading through the forum linked because the information is extremely valuable for the process.
I'll have a full length detailed video out by the end of the week. You essentially just install a potentiometer on that plug I showed and adjust the resistance on the evap temp sensor. I'll link the full walk-through video as soon as it's live.
Hey friend, how can I install this resistor? It's very hot and my truck doesn't cool properly. I installed the compressor, changed the TVV, and nothing. It has the correct refrigerant charge. I would really appreciate your help!

@GreenCastleGarage Thank you for sending me that information..I have a 2013 ford f-150 xlt with a 5.0 liter..The big problem I'm having is locating the drain tube for the a/c system..I have looked where it says it is on utube but I'm not 100% sure that is the drain tube..would you please point it out with your camera for everyone to see it..There is about 2 to 2 and half inches between the firewall and the motor if that is the drain tube I have seen..
No sir, we ordered the plugs on Amazon. The delivery got delayed so it has setback my making of the follow up video tremendously. As soon as the truck gets back, which I believe is Thursday, I will tackle it and get it up with links to everything. As for the 2018, I have no idea if it would work or not. I haven't looked into that model at all.
@fernandoalvarez4573 well the potentiometer gets wired in parallel so it's kind of counterintuitive. Basically start with around 400k on the pot and lower it in 10kohm increments until the vent temps are good
@craigguthriejr.3817 Sorry, just realized you were on the short. The links are on the full length video and it shows the plugs and the circuit in detail as well if that helps.
@@GreenCastleGarage Incredible that I found this short and you replied to a comment 2 hours ago... Sorry but the link isn't working and I don't see it pinned in the comments. Please share again, thanks man!!
My A/C cycles between blowing really cold air (what it should do) and blowing "luke warm" cold air. I cut a hole into the evap box and flushed everything out with some water, but it didn't seem to help much. Any ideas? Will your trick help me out? I also just had the pros evac out the coolant and fill with the exact correct amount too. Compressor turns on, I just think it has to be a sensor of some kind telling the system to stop blowing cold air.
Oh man, yeah you definitely don't want to jump to this stage you have a different problem. Do you own manifold guages and a good scanner? If so I can point you I the correct direction
FYI for any future readers doing this did solve my problem. Those evap temp sensors are a common failure point and this is the best way to get around replacing the entire evap box.
I'm sorry, a little chaos happened and we didn't get it done before our vacation last week. Now my buddy whose truck it is has been in NY since we got back. He arrives again tomorrow and it's the priority job once he's landed
Alright Ladies and Gentlemen the full install is finally done, enjoy: ua-cam.com/video/nc10IRoF1xc/v-deo.html Please watch the entire video or at least don't miss the warning at the end, it's important!!!
There is a full 10 min or so video linked at the end and pinned in the comments where we gave a detailed guide. Way too much to get into a 60 second short.

My boy Clay has always been a fan of the AC Blast!
Also heater core mod helps a lot as well .reduces ambient coolant temp and keeps it in the engine bay and not the cabin
@@debodang993 I actually just did that to a dodge truck not too long ago lololol
Please post an update, I want to do this
I’m in central Texas!! Let’s get that part 2 coming!! lol
@weshawks4162 it's linked in the video
Man come on where’s part 2 it’s HOT
Could you give me the name of these fancy plugs so I can order them for my truck thank you
I’m interested, how might one apply this to other vehicles?

Yeah, that's a blower motor and/or blend door issue. This won't help that problem lolol

How do you go about adding resistance? Whats that step look like??
I'm doing the final install currently, I'll have a full video out real soon that should be at least fairly easy to follow I hope lol
@GreenCastleGarage please tag me on the a/c video!
Or where can I find it
Me too please.
Yeah I have the same question.
Okay now how do we do this? Please, and thanks.

Parallel or series?

Did u change your heater core through the glove just asking because I see foil tape
@@mrstl3000 Did we, no. But the truck was bought at auction.....
@GreenCastleGarage ok I did one of my trucks like that
@mrstl3000 lololol, whatever works. Pulling those dashes is a pain
As far as I know and the last time I looked my blower mtr is on the bottom not the top. What gives?
Lololol, it's relative I suppose. By top of the blower motor I meant above it on the hvac box. You're just looking for the evap temp sensor.
Do y’all make and sell the plugs? If so would it work on a 18f150

How do i ad some "resistance"?
@fernandoalvarez4573 well the potentiometer gets wired in parallel so it's kind of counterintuitive. Basically start with around 400k on the pot and lower it in 10kohm increments until the vent temps are good

Replace the pressure transducer switch for $30 instead of doing something that is going to cost you a LOT more down the road.
