Field coil replacement
1998 F150 4.6L
My a/c stopped working last month. That was no fun but I wasn't to worried about it. Started to hear a rattling noise from the engine compartment a couple days ago. It was a terrible sound. Once I started looking for the sound, it was pretty obvious it was the a/c compressor. You could see the clutch rattling. Took the 8mm bolt out, pulled the face plate off and a few ball bearings fell out, along with a smashed up piece of metal.
I'm guessing that the bearings that hold the field coil to the compressor. My question is, do I have to remove the compressor to pull the field coil? I'd rather not have to break into the a/c system, if I don't have too.
