    Thank you so much. I am deal with an E250 with this issue and your video is the best that I have found. I subscribed, liked and belled.

    After the repair in may take a couple of drive cycles for the repair to complete itself and build pressure in the resavor.

    👍. I like your videos. I got a 2003 e350. You give plenty of good info and I can actually see see important things the way you use your camera... probably a phone. Keep making them vids.

    To reset the Inertia Switch, you don't have to remove cover, Finger can push down from over the top. Locate pushbutton while Installing side panel. May help in Future
    Do they not come with a reservoir?. Or difficult to get to and easier to add, than change out?, thanks

      Thanks for the comment. The reservoir is down under the ac components at the firewall. I find it easier to just disconnect and relocate with a new one.

    Not sure if this is the same, but my '03 just sat for 2 weeks while on vacation. Worked fine before, but when I got back, heat/AC just won't blend. Truck started right up, and I changed the blend/AC 15amp fuse, but nothing but defrost only heat, which is blowing very strong and hot from defrost only..(under any condition. Idle, load, etc).. So idk, lack of vacuum pressure doesn't "feel like" the issue & would seem something is likely just sticking bc it sat in cold N.E. weather for a couple weeks, but honestly wouldn't know, and don't wanna start cutting if not the problem.. Any help or a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

      You can check on the center of the top of the dash with the van running pop of cover and see if the actuator in there is working when you switch positions. Also, mice seem to like that spot. Sorry for delayed response I'm not getting notified for comments

    I'm probably just missing it, but after disconnecting the black from red at the front, is that black line now a dead line? Can't quite make out if you're cutting away the other end at an existing reservoir or is that black line going directly into the new reservoir. You mention "it goes up to your switches" but assuming that's the black vacuum from the front.. Thanks for any help or clarification, just making my list before tackling this.. I'll rewatch a few times .

    • @127Lasher

      So to clarify my question. The black line from front. Leave it be? Then disconnect a different black vac line that's running to the switches, and that different line then gets run into the new reservoir?

    • @lifeathand1062
      @lifeathand1062  2 года назад +2

      Yes it is dead at that point it just runs to the old pressure container

      Look at about 4:30 o. The video where I'm under the dash where I talk about pushing the old black line out after cutting it you will use the line that's original but your tapping into in under the dash

    Could this issue also affect heat loss. My actuator is fine. It changes from A/C to heat. The a/c works great but the heater just blows down by the feet but no heat

    • @lifeathand1062
      @lifeathand1062  8 месяцев назад

      I would go with air in the coolant system bad thermostat or most likely a vacuum line that needs replaced which would keep it from changing from air to heat.

      There's a good chance that the vacumm resavor will fix it you can check the vaccum lines by taking them off one at a time and holding your finger on one end and blowing into it

    Our 03 E450 shuttle bus only puts A/C out thru the defroster. Can’t find any control that switches where the air comes out. Ours has the 7.3 diesel, so don’t know if this will help us or not.

      @lifeathand1062  3 года назад

      It should be the same also o. the top of the dash in the center there is a cut out with a cover over it pop the cover and with it running adjust the air controls and see if the actuator in the dash moves. it's all ran on vacuum

    Alright, real question. I’ve done many of these. I have a fleet of them of 2018. What do I do if I’ve done the bypass, I have vacuum and it still stays on defrost. I direct connect the black to blue line and I get vents. Plug it back in to the controller and I lose vents again and switches to defrost. Im so lost it’s not even funny
