Yesterday my front A/C just quit working on my 2010 Expedition EL Limited. It worked fine on the way to work, on the way to lunch, and to the Ford Dealer to get some wiper blades. It must have known I was at the Ford Dealer, because the front A/C just quit working when I got back in from the Parts Counter! I thought it was the controller, so I turned the truck off and cranked it again to the same - no front air, but rear air. So I went back to work and some threads on this website said it could be blower motor. I checked the fuses and non blown up on the engine block. After a long hot drive home, I got my wife's little fingers involved in pulling any fuse that could do with to confirm they were good. In the process she broke a 40 amp circuit breaker, so off to the dealer Monday to get a new one!
So this is where it gets weird. I unhooked the ground cable from the battery so my wife would not get fried playing with fuses. After determining the fuses I could check were good, I hooked the battery cable up so I could go fill up the tank. AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN!
So this where I need your advice on a few things:
1. Do I need to go get it in to the dealer for a code pull, inspection?
2. How the heck do you pull those big circuit breakers (clear plastic female ones) out of the fuse box safely?
3. Friday, I had the truck serviced - oil change, power steering and transmission fluid flush - multi point inspection. Do you all think it was the battery ground cable was not connected tight enough or something?
Please give me some feedback! I am going on a 1500 mile trip for the 4th and I need to see if I need to bring it back to the dealer before I head out.
Thanks!
