5years and this video still helping people 👍

Make that 6 years and still helping. Thank you 🙏

thank you so much got it fixed 10 minutes after watching this, spent hours replacing all the evap canister hoses to get nothing so you made my day!! 95 ranger by the way, RANGER GANG!!

Thank you so very much for this video. I found this was my issue also, on my 2004 Ford Ranger. Simple fix once you locate line and get the old line pulled out of the connecting piece. So happy you posted this and happy to have my AC blowing out the dash vents again. Thank you.

Worked for my repair on a 2005 Explorer! Much thanks for taking the time to make this video.

YOU ARE A LIFESAVER!!!!! I live in Florida and finding your video was a miracle THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

My issue wasn't the exact same but this helped me to understand where the vacuum reservoir was. I then followed my line towards all the other terminals and found one of the plastic lines split inside of the wheel well. Fixed it in 10 minutes with spare vacuum hose I purchased to fix the other line when it broke.

Hey i live in az too and had the same problem! You helped me fix it in no time on the side of the road!!! Thank you so much!!!!

Thank you for sharing this fix. I just did it for my teen daughters truck and it worked like a charm. Appreciate it!

I have the same issue and thanks to you i found i vaccum leak too, so tomorrow morning i'll fix it.... Thanks

Thanks for this video! 2001 Ford Ranger with the exact same issue and your fix fixed it for me! Thanks again.

I looked in the engine bay several times but I must have missed this. Thanks man 😎

Thank you for the video. Short and to the point. On my 98 Ranger 4x4 all of the rubber connectors have completed disintegrated. Mostly onroad driving with some occasional offroading. After 20 years those vacume lines also get very brittle.

Thank you! Fixed my problem within minutes!

I'm glad I watched your video. Because I thought I had to get into the duct doors somehow to manually switch or unjam something. Fixed in 10minutes. Thanks.

You are the greatest person alive. Thanks

Thanks man fixed my ranger right up.

Good video right on the money. Solved the issue of my '95 Ford Explorer 4x4 XLT. One of the vacuum hose in the vac reservoir was out, just inserted it back and yes back to normal operation. Thanks a lot. Daghang Salamat. :)

I'll add another "me too" to so many here. The line that was broken off at the vacuum ball is only a foot long and the other end goes to what looks a sending unit below the exhaust manifold. I was able to fix it in minutes. Thanks!

Thanks for the upload

Genius We All Thank You Here In Texas!!!😎💥

My friend thank you very much!!! Exactly same issue on a 2008 xl ! Thank you god bless)

Holy shit that is the exact same problem my 1997 ford ranger has and it’s a standard and that is why I tapped on this video. Thank you so much man

Thanks that was the my problem but thanks for your video 👍 I fixed it.

Thank you for making this video. I had the same problem on my 1998 ZX2 due to having a vacuum operated vent system. I wouldn't have thought to look for vacuum lines in the engine. I was looking for a problem inside the dash. Found out I had 2 lines deteriorating. Fortunately I had some vacuum line in my garage that worked. Replaced them, now my AC is blowing through the vents. Don't know what I would have done without you.

Good video I have a 04 and does the same

Solution works. easy fix. Thanks

:)...Thanks so much...I had my 99 Exploder at my local mechanic's ( jabronis) ...They did 2K worth of work...But it was before the weather broke when I went for my AC, it was just coming out the top.....I followed your advice and low and behold, the same vacuum line is broken in half...I just called them up...They're trying to bullshit me about some Actuator doors... Good, real mechanics, are like hen's teeth...

Exact fix for my Ford Ranger 2010! Thx!

*Helpful Hints By Jonny On The Spot!* My 99 Mazda B3000 104k mi. ,had very little air flow on AC only. I removed blower motor & with an air chuck wand, blew all the debris out & through my evap. core. Though I could not physically blow through the entire surface area face of the evap core, my air flow increased 2 fold. #2 fan speed now pushes as much air as #4 fan speed did prior. Don't use those spray can evap. Core foamy cleaners! They contain sodium based chemicals that slowly dissolve the aluminum fins & solder!

I have a 98 ford ranger and this happened to me! I’m going to try this tomorrow and see it I can get it going!

Where does the end of the line go to? I have the same problem, but I can’t find out where it leads to. The end that would be towards the firewall of the truck.

Bro thank you 🙏 so much

Dude! You’re up so close I can’t tell what area under the hood you’re looking at!!

HOLY SHIT THANK YOU!!

Thank you so much some black tape and a coupler. Im back in A/C.

Have you done any other work on the explorer? I live in phx as well and I'm rebuilding a 98 and have some questions

Gracias amigo I fixed tanks

Cool Video! Thanks! I have the same issue with my 2001 Explorer. Can u please tell me which components (i.e. Air Filter Box, etc.) to take out in order to do what YOU did? Thanks again for ur help! Art

Thanks again. I just fixed 2001 Edge.

My 97 ranger did the same thing, it turned out to be the vacuum ball its self, wouldn't hold vacuum, a trip to pull apart and boom, back in business,

Where does the other line of the reservoir go to? That’s the line I’m having issues with.

Same thing for my 05 ranger just broke higher up and from other side of the line. Anyone know how far back it goes I’ll have to look later

Nice 👍🏼

Perfect….thanks

hey were r u in phx, im here too got a 1999 f250 same issues wan to fix it? thx dan

Where do the vacuum lines hook up to the fire wall that come from the globe mine are disconnected on both ends

Thanks for the video it worked and fixed my a/c

Oh man how I remember the good old days of vertical video way back in 2017.

Anybody know where in the Detroit, Michigan area a mechanic who can do this job?

Both of my lines snapped in the middle. Anyone know where I can buy those lines at?

I have a Ford Escape do you think it’ll be the same?

i have the same issue, but with the other hose on that ball. do you know where it goes? i cant find it

Holy crap this is exactly what I'm dealing with, my truck is an 09 but I'm guessing they haven't changed anything in years. I'm going to hunt for this leak.

I have the same problem but my hose keeps breaking in the middle as it's so brittle. Does anyone know where i can get the same hard plastic hose as i have found a great way of joining it. I just need to replace a section.

does anyone know where the other vacuum line on the ball goes?

My 1997 Chevy Suburban is blowing only out of Defrost! Any suggestions?

i have checked all the vacuum lines and they seem to be ok, even the ones that go on the cross rail to the other side of the engine, no broken lines. what would be the next possible failure point in this system?

I connected my line and its still not blowing. What else can I do?

I have a 97 Ranger. Mine seems to swap between front vents to defrost as I'm driving. I'll track through the vacuum tubes and see if that's my problem too.

Anyone know the nomenclature (name) of that hose? I fixed mine with an awesome White Trash repair but a new hose would be best.

Hello mine got cut on the other end but I don’t know were it goes help

If possible can you do another video lol like showing where the other line goes i kinda have the same problem hahaha but with the other side of the reservoir

very same thing happened, albeit further down the hose. thanks!!

So there’s no way to just dig into the dash and manually turn an actuator? It’s strictly vacuum??

My defrost constantly blows hot air no matter if off or on.

You are so close up, I can't tell where you are.

Same problem and same fix on my 1999 ford ranger

I need to replace my lines because every time I change my spark plugs i brake them .they are to old

My hose broke in the middle I cant tell where it comes from...

I'm aware this comment is 5 years late. But would you happen to have a part number for a replacement hose?

Your video doesn't show where to look under the hood! I'm a rookie in AZ with no AC at the moment, only defrost.

That is what My car is doing.I can not see what hi is doing..

When making a video, please start with a wide shot so we know where you are working on the vehicle

have the same problem but, I AM LMAO " so I just slipped into that part right there... I just pushed it in there, got it in pretty Deep in there then I just pulled it OUT, no worries.... THATS WHAT SHE SAID!!!!

THATS NOT A FIX THATS A PATCH/YOU DIDNT REPLACE THE BRITTLE LINE - IT WILL BREAK AGAIN

.aa

This is such a helpful video but for fucks sake just start the video without your head in the engine bay. It would’ve been the perfect video if you’d just have done that.

Nice effort, I guess, but not once did he show exactly in the engine compartment where he was working. And tilt your damn phone sideways when filming so that we can fill up the entire screen and see what you're doing. I still have no idea where he was working on this stuff. Shake my head x100
