SSM 481352019-09-09. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER. Some 2013-2020 vehicles equipped with an EVDC air conditioning (A/C) compressor may exhibit poor A/C performance/improper climate function. To support the proper diagnosis of this compressor, the EVDC control valve tester has been provided to each U.S. dealership (339-EVDC100). Ensure the A/C system has a full charge prior to any compressor diagnostics. To support the proper diagnosis of this compressor, the EVDC compressor tool must be used, and the results recorded in the Technician comments field with the warranty claim. This tester will help reduce the potential for misdiagnosis and unnecessary compressor replacement. Refer to the Rotunda catalog for a video and user manual which provide detailed operating instructions.

tsb18-21852018-09-10. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER; ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. This article supersedes TSB 18-2024 to update the model years. Some 2011-2018 Fiesta vehicles may exhibit a lack of heat resulting from a frozen blower motor. This may be caused by snow entering through the cowl panel grille and screen assemblies. Snow may melt in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) case allowing water to enter the blower motor and freeze during a below freezing overnight soak. Blower motor fuse F4 in the battery junction box (BJB) may also be open and the cabin air filter may be saturated. Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.
TSB18-20242018-06-11. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER; ENGINE; EQUIPMENT. Some 2011-2017 Fiesta vehicles may exhibit a lack of heat resulting from a frozen blower motor. This may be caused by snow entering through the cowl panel grille and prior screen assemblies. Snow may melt in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) case allowing water to enter the blower motor and freeze during a below freezing overnight soak. The blower motor fuse at location F4 in the power distribution box may also be open and the cabin air filter may be water saturated. Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.
TSB18-20242018-05-29. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER. Some 2011-2017 Fiesta vehicles may exhibit a lack of heat resulting from a frozen blower motor.

SSM 460722017-08-01. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER. Some 2015-2016 Fiesta vehicles equipped with a 1.6L engine may exhibit insufficient A/C cooling after engine RPM changes. A/C cooling may return after switching the A/C off and back on. This may be due to an internal leak path in compressor that allows pressure to fluctuate. To correct the condition replace the A/C compressor (19703). Refer to Workshop Manual, Section 412-00. Use applicable labor operations from section 11 of the service labor time standard (SLTS) manual.
SSM 464052017-03-20. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER. SOME 2016 FIESTA VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH EATC MAY EXHIBIT A LACK OF HEAT IN SETTINGS OTHER THAN HIGH AUTO. REPROGRAM THE HEATING VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING (HVAC) MODULE TO LATEST CALIBRATION USING THE INTEGRATED DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM (IDS) RELEASE 104.02 OR HIGHER. MAKE SURE YOU ARE CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET WHEN ENTERING MODULE PROGRAMMING TO OBTAIN THE LATEST UPDATES. CALIBRATION FILES MAY ALSO BE OBTAINED AT WWW.MOTORCRAFTSERVICE.COM. FOR CLAIMING, USE CAUSAL PART 19980 AND APPLICABLE LABOR OPERATIONS IN SECTION 10 OF THE SERVICE LABOR TIME STANDARDS (SLTS) MANUAL.
