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

What It Helps Fix

• A/C compressor cycling problems caused by a faulty pressure switch
• Cooling fan control issues tied to refrigerant pressure input
• Compressor shutdown from incorrect high-pressure signal readings
• Intermittent HVAC operation on Ford F-250 Super Duty and F-350 Super Duty models
• Pressure-switch related faults on Mustang, Escape, Taurus, and similar listed vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, make, model, and A/C configuration before ordering. Fitment includes notes such as with A/C tube assembly with manifold and evaporator mounting on specific applications, so the exact HVAC layout matters. Confirm the connector style, mounting location, and system configuration against the original switch before installation. The SW11101C should be matched to the listed application only.

Quality Assurance

Universal Air identifies this part as a Binary HPCO/Cooling Fan Pressure Switch for the listed HVAC applications. Use the part number SW11101C and the vehicle fitment details to confirm the correct replacement before service.
