How To Disconnect Heater Hose On Ford 2.0L

Описание: In this video I show how to disconnect and reconnect a Ford heater hose used on 2012-2016 Ford Focus 2.0L and 2013-2016 Ford Escape 2.0L Ecoboost. The process is very simple once you understand how the coupling that connects the heater hose works. First turn the two tangs on the ring, as shown in the video, counter clockwise. This unlocks the coupling. Once the coupling is unlocked you can then disconnect the heater hose. To reconnect, first turn the two tangs on the ring clockwise until the tang with an arrow on it lines up with the symbol on the black plastic portion of the housing as show in the video. Then reconnect the coupling. Be sure the divot on the male end lines up with the symbol on the coupling. Push the hose on until the coupling snaps into place. Give the hose a light tug (don't break anything in the process) to insure it is locked securely.

Warning: Whenever servicing the cooling system, disconnecting hoses, the cooling system should be totally cool and depressurized. Injury can occur if care isn't taken. Please refer to your repair manual for information on how to safely cool and depressurize your cooling system.

Warning!! Be sure the cooling system is totally cool and depressurized before disconnecting heater hose. Hot coolant under pressure could spray onto you causing personal injury if you don't. I'd suggest letting the vehicle cool down, with the engine off, for a few hours before opening the cooling system. I'd also suggest carefully opening the radiator cap to relieve any pressure that may be in the system after the engine is cool. (Place a rag over the radiator cap before removing it. Remove it slowly and carefully. Do not allow the cap to blow off and possibly get hot coolant on you.) Once the system is cool and depressurized then you can perform you repair. Use your repair manual for further information on whatever repair you are performing.
