Take command of your climate controls with the Standard Ignition A/C Selector Switch (P/N: HS-384, also written HS384), a direct-fit OE replacement that drops into the 1998-2001 Ford Explorer and 1998-2000 Ford Ranger. This A/C and Heater Selector Switch is the operator control that lets you choose the heating and air-conditioning modes, sending your inputs to the HVAC system. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific applications.
Signs the original switch may need replacing include modes that won't change, an unresponsive or intermittent selector, or controls that stick. If a failed selector switch is the cause of your HVAC control trouble, this unit replaces it — diagnose the cause before ordering, since other components can produce similar symptoms.
