Unrelated question. Can the high pressure switch be removed without evacuating a fully charged system, like the low pressure switch can be removed due to it having a schrader valve?
@@RogueWrenching Thanks, I have replace it. Looks that i am still have a problem. Truck runs cold for about an hour or so and then quits and hot air comes out. There was some small metal shaving on the orifice tube so suspecting the compressor may not be doing that good.
Good explanation
Appreciate it thanks
What year 6.0 diesel is your video? I have a 2006 f250 6.0. Not sure if ford made changes during this year. Thanks for the info and good video!
This was an 05, virtually identical to your 06.

If the Schrader valve holds, yes.
Do you have to evacuate the system first?
Yes
Absolutely. This system is under pressure with toxic refrigerant. It needs to be recovered using suitable equipment and NOT vented to atmosphere.
Where is the expansion valve located? if this truck has one? I have a 2002 f450 6.8l v10 and it has the same ac system as this.
These trucks run fixed Orfice tube and not expansion valves. So no, there isn't an expansion valve on your truck.
