hey thanks for the info. I routed my new vacume line around the space by door panel but then used the valve and canister as you showed. It worked well and I appreciate your info to help me. thanks alot
Fantastic video, solving my current a/c not blowing out the dash vents problem, on my recently purchased 2009 E350 cutaway bus. Your parts list is a great time saver for me. Thank you for creating the informative video and parts listing
I have a 06 E450 and the heat blows on the floor all the time. It burns my feet through shoes. Would this help that? It's like the floor heat is on all day
so glad to have stumbled into your page i have a 97 but our problem is its stinking up everything like exhaust fumes and leaves all our guest skin stinkin .. Do you know if theres a valve to turn off when runnin ac in the rear ? or any idea why it stinks like exhaust in the back
NO! My debts are stuck on NORM A/C. I can't get my vents to turn to defrost. Do you know how irritating it is to constantly have air conditioning blowing? How do I fix it. I'm dying here.
Awesome information, and when you think how much it would cost to have it brought to a place where they work on A/C systems , plus the parts you can get real cheap
Another even cheaper fix is to remove the access panel on top of the dash and just tie the servo that controls the ac doors in the open position and call it good. You’ll won’t have access to the heat and defrost vents anymore. It’ll be 100% dash, but if you’re in Florida like me, who cares. 😂
Try Vantage optics, they sell a kit. You also should be able to get a generic reservoir from any auto parts store. The vantage optics also has a how to video.
Most of the time you can disconnect the vacuum line on top of the dash. Then spray just a tiny amount of WD-40 into it and reconnect. It has worked on 3-4 vans that I have repaired and my own. Long as the actuator/actuators aren’t bad. Otherwise this is a great down and dirty work around.
Did it work for you? I have the same problem, mine is intermittent right now, if I cycle the knob from vent from air to vent i eventually get it blowing thru my front vents again. It works for 15 then quits and I have to recycle..
I bought the $32 kit from Vantage Optics and air is working great here in Florida for my 1997 E350
Thanks for the video! Helped me fix my 1998 Ford E-con Club Wagon A/C. Symptoms were exactly as you describe. Thanks for the post! Nat 🤩

Thank you so much for this video. Very well made sir.

I did everything you said but no air comes out the front at all now. Only hot air in the rear.
Great video

EXCELLENT!! Thank You!!

I'd like to try your method first, which line on the dash do I need to spray wd 40 into? Which color or location? Thanks.
