Escape Hybrid AC not working

I had a similar problem with my Escape. Is it making any weird noises when you turn the AC on, like a high-pitched whine? Or any change at all when you press the AC button? Could be something as simple as a pressure switch, but those can be tricky to diagnose without the right tools.

No weird noises that I can hear, just...nothing. The AC light on the dash comes on, but that's it. How did you eventually figure out what was wrong with yours?

Mine was a pain to figure out. The AC light would come on too, which made it even more confusing. Turned out to be individual valves in the AC system itself had a defect. I ended up taking it to a workshop that specializes in AC diagnostics. It wasn't cheap, around 1000€ to get it fixed, but at least I have AC again. Honestly, I'd recommend getting it checked out by a professional. Could save you a lot of headaches.

Thanks for the info! Sounds like I'm headed to the workshop. I appreciate you sharing your experience.
