Escape A/c *****...
Hello,
New here and was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a couple of 2002 Ford Espcape *****, for the A/c control and temp control? Mine stripped on the inside and will not turn the control anymore. If anyone has any info, I would really appreciate it. Thanks and have a good day!

If the **** ferrule is just cracked and not broken off, you could try glueing a 3/8" compression fitting (the kind used with copper or plastic water line to join it to a copper compression fitting) on the ferrule to repair it. I reinforced all of mine this way and have yet to break one.

I had the same thing happen with my '01 Esc XLT V6 4WD (except it was the fan and function *****). Took it to the dealer for regular service & had replacements installed while it was in. Not happy with the new *****, as they don't sit flush with the panel the way the temperature- and original ***** did.

Had the same problem on the wife's 03. She would crank the fan **** so fast she ended up breaking it. I fixed mine (and reinforced the other two) by using heat shrink tubing & a zip tie on the back side. I also moved the fan **** to a lesser-used function (heat control) to extend the life of it. It's been at least 5-6 years now and none of them have failed.
