How to Recharge the A/C System on a Ford Escape Mercury Mariner AC 2001-2007

How to Recharge the A/C System on a Ford Escape Mercury Mariner AC 2001-2007

In this video we are showing how to recharge the Air Conditioning System on Ford Escape First Generation. We will also show how to find the information about the capacity of your system according to your engine and what to use. We demonstrated on a 2006 Ford Escape with the 2.3 4 cylinder engine and the capacity of the A/C System is 32oz or 0.91 grams.
This procedure should cover the first Generation Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner and even Mazda Tribute since they share the same platform.

[ninjaloccsta]

Thank you. short, simple, and easy to follow

[mr.l]

I've always been skeptical of those "do it yourself" a/c kits! Thanks for the video!

[Rafsangani]

Thanks a lot, your video was very helpful.
The gas was so low that the AC would never start.It is grest now and I am ready for Arizona summer.

[beaumagana]

Is the ac valve in the same spot with the v6 6 cylinder 2005 escape?

[MrShadyfish]

It takes 32 oz if you completely evacuate all air from the system.  If you just pop on the quick charge cans, and have air in your system, you will over pressurize it with 32 oz.

[THShawshankRedemption]

Damn, that under bonnet looks CLEAN, what do you use ? Thank you for the very GREAT video!

[wannerrudolph]

Is that the low port service side or the high port device side??

[rhonp]

you did not show the reading on how much presure in PSI should be?

[Haroldsalazarindiglosv]

Hello my friend, I have a question!

[MikeCollins]

Freon: How do you add Freon when the compressor won't turn because of low freon?

[reneeaspiranti]

How do I repair if the Freon is leaking out of the system

[joeyhalteman]

I added two cans and it worked well for one day but then it was hot again on the end of the second day I think I might have a leak if I use the stop leak stuff do I have to add cans then after the stop leak or would I put them in before this I believe

[brianhall]

Around 2:55, you mention that "if your fans don't work, then your A/C compressor will not work." What fan is this specifically? I took my 2001 Ford Escape XLS into an auto repair shop because the A/C is running, but isn't cold. I thought it would be a simple recharge, but I was told that it would be ~$1000 to replace a fan that's not working. Could I do this myself?

[maritzatorres]

what should i do if I hit the red when adding refrigerant?

[Markinpuff]

When I try this it goes to, the green, makes a noise and goes back down to low levels and comes back up and repeats when the air in on? In my air broke?

[susanlambert]

Where does the oil go mone is out i was told do i read the yellow 4 the oil AS WELL ????

[alabioni]

The problem am having now is that my car is doing low charging.. It easily run down battery
