Four Seasons 73486 blend door for the 1995-2005 Ford Explorer and other vehicles is sold as an HVAC blend door kit that controls how warm and cool air mix before reaching the cabin.
- Engineered and tested for years of trouble-free operation, backed by over 50 years of mobile A/C experience
- Meets or exceeds OE specifications for fit and function
- Tested for function, durability and longevity
Air that stays hot or cold whatever the temperature setting, or a ticking from behind the dash, can mean the blend door or its drive has worn out. These signs alone don't prove the blend door is at fault; a low coolant level can leave the heater blowing cool air too.
The same kit is a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac and the 2001-2003 Ford Explorer Sport. If your car isn't named here, enter it in the "Vehicles it fits" section to see whether this kit fits.
