What doesn't work?? the fan, the switch??? what component?
I have the same set up in my 79 super cab and the speed control switch is fifnicky, sometimes it doesn't supply pwr. to the blower fan, have to give it a nudge and it works, I have ben meaninhg to repair it for some time now...we all know how that goes. I get some parts from a guy in Jersey...dash auto air, he is real helpful, but I do believe they are manufactured aftermarket also, nostalgic or vintage air??

My 1978 has the ecomomy system. Compressor kicks on and everything seems to be in order except for a hole in the low pressure line so no freon. Are dryers/expansion valves available still? Basically your regular service parts. Also it appears the lines are just hose clamped instead of crimped. Does this mean I can get away with just replacing the hoses and flush everything/vaccum/recharge? (assuming the compressor works. Its definitely not locked up though)

1973/79: There are TWO different Ford dealer installed A/C's.
Dealer Installed Economy A/C: Two control ***** in the center panel with two registers above.
The original glove box is intact.
------------------------------
Dealer Installed Deluxe A/C: The A/C plastic bezel sweeps across the dash, from the ash tray to the end, covering up the original glove box.
A hang-on (under the dash) glove box was furnished with the A/C installation kit.
The two ***** that operate the switches are on the left side of this bezel, which may be wood grained.
There is a Ford blue oval emblem on this bezel at the center right.
----------------------------------------------------------------
The two switches however, are the same for both A/C units.

Numbersdummy. I know this is a very old post so I am hoping it find
s you. I was unable to send you a private message through the forum. You have the best knowledge of these AC systems I have come across. How do you find out who has these old parts. I am in need of parts for my 78. I believe my AC was. Deluxe system. My control is just like the One in the Red dash in this post. This is the only place I have found a picture of a control like mine. Hoping you can help.
