AC internal switch not working
My AC has not been working for about 4 years now. 2 years ago I filled it with freon and AC guy said it wasn't working because the switch/lever that turns the AC/heater from one to the other was broken. The outcome was that he would charge me $500 to replace the switch and that the cost was so much because he would have to take out the entire dashboard. So I never did it. I went to Ford parts center and asked how much that piece would cost and the guy at the counter mentioned that by removing the lower panel of the interior dashboard I can create my own lever to go from AC to Heater. Has anyone done this before? I'd greatly appreciate any help in trying to solve this problem. I just can't spend $500 or another hot summer with out AC.

Start here. Don't worry about the time, it's not a race. Keep all the screws together and reinstall in the exact opposite you disassembled.
