Climate Control – Overview
Pollen filter
E97258
The pollen filter must be changed at intervals in
accordance with the service schedule. A special
production pollen filter is installed in the factory,
and this must be cut through when the filter is
changed. The service pollen filter is flexible and
can be pushed together during installation or
removal.
Heat exchanger
E97249
The heat exchanger is accessible from the
right-hand side of the climate control housing (LHD
and RHD). It can be removed and installed with
the climate control housing still installed in the
vehicle. During removal, the coolant pipes of the
production heater core must be sawn through.
During servicing, a heater core with separate
coolant pipes is installed.
Evaporator assembly
E97250
The evaporator is located on the right-hand side
of the climate control housing (LHD and RHD). It
can only be removed and installed with the climate
control housing still installed in the vehicle, and the
heat exchanger must be removed at the same time.
Blower motor
CAUTION: Make sure that the blower motor
and fan assembly is placed on the bench
with the fan pointing upwards.
412-131
E101398
To prevent damage to the fan wheel vanes, the
fan wheel must not be touched. For this reason, a
special tool (412-131) has been introduced for
removal and installation of the blower motor. This
tool is pushed onto the central shaft in order to lift
out the blower motor.

Fault Memory Interrogation without
diagnostics unit - vehicles with
automatic temperature control
NOTE:On vehicles equipped with a DVD
navigation system with touchscreen, the fault
memory can only be interrogated using the Ford
diagnostic tool.
The climate control and heating system features
a on-board diagnosis function which can detect
and store both current permanent faults as well as
intermittent faults which have occurred during
normal operation of the vehicle. It is also possible
to read out these faults via the display on the
control panel of the climate control system. To read
out the fault memory, the ignition key must be
turned to the "ON" position and the battery voltage
must be between 9 V and 16 V.
To activate the on-board diagnosis at the control
panel for the climate control system, PRESS the
"OFF" and "FOOTWELL" buttons simultaneously
for exactly 2 seconds, then PRESS "AUTO" within
1.5 seconds. The on-board diagnosis which then
starts lasts a few seconds. An animated display
appears in the display of the control panel for the
climate control system during this time. Any faults
found are displayed on both displays of the control
panel for the climate control system in the form of
trouble codes.
To read out saved errors at the control panel for
the climate control system, PRESS the "OFF" and
"FOOTWELL" buttons simultaneously for exactly
2 seconds, then PRESS "HEAD AREA" within 1.5
seconds. Any stored faults are shown on the
display of the control panel for the climate control
system and should be noted for safety reasons.
By PRESSING the "DEFROST" button, the fault
memory is cleared and diagnosis mode is ended.
To end the diagnostic mode without clearing the
DTCs, PRESS any other operating button on the
control panel for the climate control system.
To read out the software version at the control
panel for the climate control system, PRESS the
"OFF" and "FOOTWELL" buttons simultaneously
for exactly 2 seconds, then PRESS "A/C" within
1.5 seconds. The software version is shown on the
display of the control panel for the climate control
system. The output mode can be exited by
PRESSING any button on the control panel for the
climate control system.
Switch over from Celsius to Fahrenheit
The switch from Celsius to Fahrenheit is performed
on the display of the instrument cluster and is then
transmitted via the CAN bus to the module of the
two-zone air conditioning system.
