How do I make my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon air conditioning colder?

Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.

Why do I get hot air from my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon A/C?

If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.

How does my A/C system get a leak?

A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon's A/C system.

Does my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon A/C run on gas?

E-150 Econoline Club Wagon air conditioning systems don’t use gasoline as a direct fuel source. However, they do rely on engine power, which can indirectly affect your vehicle’s gas mileage.

Why does the A/C in my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon smell like vinegar?

Moisture can accumulate on your vehicle’s A/C system components, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. As this bacteria grows, it can cause the air conditioning system in your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon to have a vinegar-like smell.

Why does my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s A/C only work when the car is moving?

If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
