a/c not blowing cold

[fjpikul]

Would that not show up in the OASIS report?

I got around to (hopefully) fixing the issue. Per leak detector light, there was evidence of a slow leak. It registered close to 0 on the gauge supplied with the 1234yf can. I added 1234yf and it is blowing cold again!



The pertinent items are under a carbon fiber panel in the drivers side of the rear trunk btw.

Something like this kit?

Can anyone verify 1234 yf schrader valve used in 2017- present NGT?

Just a caution check to make sure its not the hi side fitting that's leaking .....have had a few of them leaking. Parts catalog doesn't show the Schrader valve as a separate part.

my 2017 currently does not blow cold air. My dealer is 250 miles away in St. Louis. I hope I can recharge it myself. The ports in the front of car?

Hello Jsonday, The A/C ports on the 2017 Ford GT are located in driver side rear of engine compartment. You will need to remove the driver side engine compartment carbon fiber trim to gain access to the A/C ports. I would advise you to look for a leak if it is in fact low on freon. The cost of the yz1234 is the most expensive freon out there.

Joe,

thanks for the info on what side the A/C ports are on. Not an easy task to reach over to the trim on either side.

There are several styles of these out there that may help

I bought the Traxion topside creeper shorty from Eastwood, and I hate to say this but the quality is poor. It does not set flat on all four casters. there was one hole that was not drilled, no screws supplied for the top pad to be fixed to the out reach frame, and the instructions had the cross beam that attaches both end casters together miss labeled. So a bit of twisting and extra bolts from the parts bin got it up and usable. It does a great job to hang over the GT to work on it or look at it.
