There was a technical service bulletin for this, as Joe said they did change it up to 75-140 for all models... including pick-ups.

thanks Joe. Did some pinpoint tests and there is proper voltage at the dccv plug so it is likely the valve.

could have been a residual code. Checked the battery when disconnected and it reads 12.4 volts, new last summer. Connected batt and checked charging.. it reads 14.5 volts. Re-tested from front panel and the only code I get is 1265 which is a ghost code. All 8's light up on front panel test but...

ooops, sorry. should know better. 2004 v8. I changed the datc the other day cause I have been chasing a problem with the a/c. Changed the dccv last summer and still had the same issue and after reading in the work shop manual and doing some tests on the plugs of the datc, it seemed to point to...

anyone ever ran into this code? voltage out of range?

I just received my coils and plugs from rockauto and the bags say they are motorcraft but on the bottom of the bags it says made in china? is nothing made in North America anymore? Has anybody had any issues with these coils or are they about the same as the ones I took out. To early to tell...

this was the same issue with my '04. the tsb stated that the duct work could possibly pull apart in the back of the seat. I removed the seat back and sure enough the plastic ducts had pulled apart so the top and cushion of the seat was getting a mixed signal. I did as the ford repair suggested...

okay, that's what I thought. sounds to me like my valve is good... guess the next step is to check the datc as stated in shop manual. I'm kinda suspicios that is the problem cause it works great on first start up, cold on both sides but after you shut the car off or fiddle with the settings, it...

okay, so correct if I'm wrong but what you're saying is there should be continuity between the metal casing and the 2 outer pins?

I double checked the dccv and both 1/2 and 2/3 pins read app. 15 ohms. I also checked to see if there was anything between casing and pins and the results were 000..:confused:

So what you're suggesting is an internal short in the solenoid. I will check this and let you know. I am getting 2798 on the self test. when I...

I measured resistence between terminal 1-2 and then 2-3 as instructed in the shop manual. At least that's what I understood in the climate control system trouble shooting. It says to check theses and if it has 10-23 ohms that it is good? maybe I misunderstood?:confused:

thanks jjcool00, this will help big time:)

I'm getting the same code but my dccv was changed last year. any of the video's I've watched show that if you are having trouble with the valve, it will interfere with your nav screen. I am in the process of doing more diagnostics on my main control to see if there is a problem there. I don't...

Hey guys, would anyone happen to have a wiring diagram of the climate control system or know which plug is which? I've been having trouble with my a/c and in order to do more diagnostics I need to pull out the datc and check the plugs for resistance and power. I'm pretty sure it isn't the dccv...
