Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C Repair

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like lava. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Ford vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1997 Ford A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1997 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C system to detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1997 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Ford guidelines. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1997 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C recharges.

Other Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. If your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1997 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon.

1997 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C System FAQs

  • Can I make my E-350 Econoline Club Wagon air conditioner colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why is my E-350 Econoline Club Wagon A/C blowing hot air? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does the A/C in my E-350 Econoline Club Wagon rely on gas? E-350 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-350 Econoline Club Wagon smell like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • Why does my E-350 Econoline Club Wagon’s A/C only work when the car is moving? Damaged or worn components in your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
