A/C Service for Ford F-350 Super Duty

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. “Who can fix my Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We’ve got experience with Ford vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1999 Ford. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Ford F-350 Super Duty

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1999 Ford F-350 Super Duty 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 think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

F-350 Super Duty A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1999 Ford F-350 Super Duty, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Ford's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1999 Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C recharges.

Common Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1999 Ford F-350 Super Duty? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your F-350 Super Duty’s A/C!

Questions About 1999 Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C Systems

  • How do I make my F-350 Super Duty 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 is my F-350 Super Duty 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.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? 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 F-350 Super Duty’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 F-350 Super Duty use gas? While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your F-350 Super Duty.
  • My F-350 Super Duty’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? If the air conditioning in your F-350 Super Duty 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 won’t my F-350 Super Duty’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your F-350 Super Duty is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
