Description

Keep your air conditioning dry and clean with the Four Seasons A/C Accumulator 83096. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, and 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer. This accumulator/filter drier removes moisture and contaminants from the refrigerant that flushing cannot clear, which is why it must be replaced whenever the system is opened or serviced.

Moisture & contaminant control: Acts as a filter, and its desiccant bag absorbs moisture from the system to help protect the components downstream.
Leak-free build: Features quality welds for a durable, leak-free design, with high-quality desiccant for appropriate absorption.
Ready to install: Includes the necessary gaskets, o-rings, and seal for easy installation.
Backed by experience: Produced in an ISO/TS16949 & ISO14001 certified facility using state-of-the-art equipment and high-quality materials.

Because a leaking or open system can saturate the desiccant bag within a few hours, a saturated accumulator/filter drier becomes ineffective. Replacing it is also required to validate the compressor warranty and must be done anytime the system is serviced. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for full engine-level fitment details.

Do I need to replace the accumulator when servicing the A/C?

Yes. Four Seasons states it must be replaced anytime the system is serviced, and replacement is required to validate the compressor warranty.
