Have a W reg 1.25 Fiesta Zetec with aircon.

Makes no difference where the temperature control in turned to, warm air comes through.

Is it possible for the control valve to stick open, or is it more likely the control unit is knackered.

Or is there another possibility.

One thought I had was that if i remove the power from the valve it should close and the air go cold. If so then it mus be the control sending hot permanently, will that work?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks

hi, what is the temperature gauge telling you, is it normal, ive had fords in the past where the thermostat has stuck open, so the water never really gets warm,
