2003 Ford Excursion A/C Condenser Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the A/C condenser on 2003 Ford Excursion?

  A: Before removing the A/C condenser it is essential to perform a leak test if core leakage is suspected. The integration of a new suction accumulator needs to be done when a failed A/C compressor or damaged suction accumulator exists. Start with refrigerant recovery before proceeding to remove 9 pin-type retainers and sight shield along with the air deflector. Start by disconnecting the A/C condenser core inlet and outlet tubing then remove screws holding the hood latch before marking the position for realignment when assembling. First execute the screws that stabilize right-hand and left-hand A/C condenser core mounting brackets and take out the A/C condenser core. The installation requires a reverse order of removal steps while using new O-ring seals that need lubrication with PAG oil. Also include cleaning the refrigerant system with appropriate amounts of PAG oil. The cooling system requires evacuation and leak testing before system charging completes this procedure.
