We have a problem with my daughter’s 2000 Ford Escort air conditioner. It has cold air but the blower doesn’t put out any volume. We had a 1998 and it had the same problem but not this bad. Is this a problem for this car and worse for this year? Any comments on this or suggestions on how to increase the air flow would be much appreciated by my daughter. Thanks ---

How long have you had this car? Has it always had this problem, or is it a new problem? Do you hear a strange, high-pitched noise when using the fan? Does the fan actually change speed when you change the speed-setting on the fan control? ---

IF this is a new issue… IF the motor has all the speeds… You may have a blend door stuck closed. Does the air come out of anywhere else, just not where you want it ? Your blend doors are vacuum operated and a vacuum leak would default to closed on most doors. There are three vacuum motors on yours but a vacuum leak could be anywhere. Someone would do a smoke test to see where or do a physical vacuum test on each motor, switch, reservoir, and lines. ---

I have a 1998 Ford Escort SE with the same issue.
