Why does 2003 ford windstar air conditioner blows hot and cold air?

In general, as I don't know about Windstar, this can be a problem with the linkage or valve to the heater core. So if the heater core is stuck inline with the engine water jacket and not bypassed, then it is going to produce heat no matter what setting it is on. If the problem is the other way, where it is the cooling that is stuck, then there could be a short in the switch or wiring to the compressor's clutch. The clutch is solenoid-operated, and if the solenoid is getting power when it is not supposed to, then cooling will occur whether you want it or not. Now if you mean different temperatures coming out of different vents, then it is likely a vacuum actuator not working the blend door. It could be stuck, broken, or have a leak in its tubing.

What could be the problem with an 03 kia sorento the ac blows hot air the compressor doesn't kick on and the low side freon is high?

AC Compressor has died and needs replacement. The compressor will not turn therefore building pressure in the low side.


What is wrong with ac in 2003 Toyota Camry when ac light blinks and blows warm air?

If it blows warm air with the AC on,the compressor is not supplying the evaporator with high pressure liquid refrigerant. The compressor magnetic clutch relay may be bad, the fuse might have blown or the compressor itself has mechanical problems. I would start by seeing if the magnetic clutch is engaging when the AC is selected. If the clutch is not turning,check the relay and the fuse. You might have also lost the refrigerant charge through a leak in the evaporator,condensor,piping, high and/or low pressure lines There is a high/low pressure switch in this system.I believe it is on the passenger side of the evaporator. On my 04,you can see it. If this switch has failed, the compressor will not operate. Good luck.

Try the A/C relay. it is located under hood. in the relay box.


Why did my ac stop working the clutch still engages the fan blows hot found no leaks?

The compressor needs to be changed. There is no more pressure in it. It keeps working but only hot air is comes out.
