My temp gauge climbs when I turn on A/C. It never rises when idling or driving only when I turn A/C on. It blows cold.

Asked by GuruDZ2LK Aug 09, 2017 at 01:37 PM about the Ford F-450 Super Duty

Question type: General

works fine it just concerns me. It might be normal to climb but don't want to take
that chance.

1 Answer

How much does the temp go up? The AC does put additional heat load on the cooling system. Make sure your cooling fan is working properly.
