Detailed Description

Universal Air EX10370C is a block-style A/C expansion valve used in the HVAC refrigerant circuit to meter flow into the evaporator. It is listed for 2009-2017 Ford and Lincoln truck and SUV applications, including Ford F-150, Lincoln Navigator, and Lincoln Mark LT models with the specified A/C configurations. This part number, EX10370C, is a focused replacement for vehicles that use a block expansion valve layout rather than a tube-and-fin style metering device.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Addresses

  • Weak or inconsistent cabin cooling
  • Improper refrigerant metering at the evaporator
  • A/C performance loss in front HVAC systems
  • Temperature fluctuation during compressor operation
  • Restriction-related refrigerant flow problems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s A/C configuration before ordering, especially Dual A/C System and Dual Zone A/C requirements. Match the existing valve style and front HVAC location to the listed fitment for the Ford F-150, Lincoln Navigator, or Lincoln Mark LT. Recover refrigerant and follow proper HVAC service procedures before replacing the valve.

Quality Assurance

Universal Air identifies this part as a Block Expansion Valve within its HVAC A/C flow restrictor line. Confirm fitment by year, make, model, and A/C configuration before installation.
