2013-2016 Escape – 2.5L – Rough Idle/Low RPM At Idle/Or Stall On Hot Restart
Some 2013-2016 Escape vehicles equipped with 2.5L engine may exhibit a rough idle, low RPM at idle or a stall on hot restart with no DTCs in self test.
This may be due to the A/C compressor clutch being seized.
If a vehicle comes in for this concern, check the A/C compressor to see if it is engaged during start up/initial run.
The PCM strategy keeps the A/C compressor clutch off for 5 seconds on initial start.
If so, replace the compressor assembly (CV6Z-19703-L).
If not, perform normal diagnostics in the PC/ED.
