Product Details

The accumulator is a critical part of the vehicle air conditioning system. In Ford Windstar applications, it helps manage refrigerant flow and moisture control on the low-pressure side of the system. This RD2195C accumulator is listed for 1995, 1996, 1997, and 1998 Ford Windstar models with no rear A/C, so fitment should be matched to the vehicle’s HVAC configuration before ordering. Universal Air RD2195C is a practical replacement choice when servicing an aging A/C system on a Windstar.

Common Problems It Can Help Address

• Restricted refrigerant circulation in the A/C system
• Moisture contamination inside the HVAC circuit
• Reduced cooling performance from a worn accumulator
• Service issues during A/C repair or compressor replacement
• Leak-related loss of refrigerant at the accumulator assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify that the vehicle is a 1995-1998 Ford Windstar without rear A/C before installation. Replace the accumulator when opening the A/C system for major service, and evacuate and recharge the system according to factory procedures after installation. Confirm all line connections, seals, and system cleanliness before returning the vehicle to service.
