Quick facts
- Part: Four Seasons 3553NK A/C compressor mount and drive kit
- Fits: 2003-2005 Ford Explorer and other vehicles
- Position: Front and rear
- Condition: New
Warm air from the vents, a grinding or squealing noise with the A/C on, or oily residue around the compressor can mean it is failing. Before you replace it, rule out a low refrigerant charge, a blown fuse or relay and a slipping belt, since each can cause similar symptoms. The A/C system has a single compressor, so one kit covers a vehicle.
