AC Problem

Okay guys, I need some help. I have a 2007 F350 King Ranch that has about 265,000 miles on it and I am having a few AC issues. I had some of the vacuum hoses replaced due to the fact that they were old and cracked. I am having 2 issues. (1) I am getting fogging on the lower windshield like it is wanting to defrost when it is very humid out there. Once I was having the issue and had to have some unrelated work done and everything reset and it did great for a year or two. That is one. Number 2, I don't know if a sensor is worn out or what, but I have to put it on 60 to really get the air kicked in. It would be 85 outside and if I put the temp on 65, it still puts out a little heat and then I have to put it on 60 and things start cooling. It's like I need to change the sensor or something that tells the outside temp the the computer or something. Does anybody have any ideas?

Thank you,

i’ve had fog build up on the windshield when it’s real humid out; always felt that was normal. sometimes have to turn on the wipers for quick clearing

to get it to cool down quickly, I put it on “recirc” so that i’m not constantly trying to cool down the hit exterior air. seems to work pretty good.

Run the EATC self test/recalibration.
