Keep refrigerant moving through your truck's air conditioning with the DENSO Auto Parts A/C Compressor 471-8120, a new 1997-2003 and 2005-2006 Ford F-150 AC compressor with clutch that serves as a direct-fit replacement for those trucks and the 2004 Ford F-150 Heritage, all engines. The compressor pressurizes and circulates refrigerant through the A/C system. Its clutch engages and releases the pulley so the compressor runs when the system calls for cooling.
Signs your AC compressor may need replacing include warm air from the vents with the A/C on, grinding or rattling when the compressor engages, a clutch that will not engage, or leaks at the compressor body. Other components can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the system before replacing parts. Follow the vehicle service information for flushing, related component replacement and the correct oil and refrigerant charge.
