Welcome! In this video I tackle removing and replacing the expansion valve in an attempt to fix the rear air conditioning on my 1997 Ford E-150 Econoline Starcraft converted van, Engima. The expansion valve is the main device that meters freon for the evaporator installed for the rear AC, so it functioning at 100% is critical. I show how to get access to the AC, how to remove and replace the valve proper, I explain how it works and what needs to be done after reassembly. I also find out that I have a restriction in one of my ac air lines, though fixing that is another video for another day...
This video should work for most any Starcraft converted van that was given a custom AC from ProAir. Though I installed an ACDelco as the replacement valve, the original is an Eaton and can still be found on eBay.
