Can I bypass ac compressor

google 2003 ford focus se 2.0 dohc ac bypass pulley for answer. you will replace ac compressor with this item $40.00-50.00

That's not the way you do it, you remove the AC Compressor and fit a Bypass Pulley in its place. The belt and routing remain the same.

No, because the routing doesn't work out right.

So they sell Bypass pulleys and you just use the same belt.

Check for bypass bracket kits at big auto parts stores or online.

Dead battery due to an alternator problem is likely.

because of the way the belt is routed the ac compressor can not be bypassed by using a smaller belt. So that leaves you with 2 options. 1. replace the a/c compressor and enjoy the benefits of a/c during the hottest days of summer. 2. remove the a/c compressor and install a bypass pulley. option one gives the most benefit for the dollar and is also the most reliable repair. option 2 is not as sound of a repair, can be installed incorrectly, has a higher probability of failure, costs less, and makes you rely on open windows to cool off.

Get a belt for a windstar with out a/c and leave the compressor out.

The routing diagram is on the underside of the hood or on the front radiator support panel. You really cant bypass the AC compressor either. You'll have to replace the compressor hub bearing or the whole clutch hub assembly. I think yours is frozen or noisy, right?

If it doesn't make any noise when AC is off, and your o.k. with that, just unplug the connector going to the compressor & it won't engage the clutch anymore.

They get more than warm, but not excessively hot that you can't touch it. This can be caused by a faulty condenser fan motor, dirty condenser coil even low freon, which is my guess along with a dirty condenser. Check these two issues and if it's not the problem your compressor may be getting ready to die. because of internal issues with the motor windings. Make sure the fan is running to speed, clean the condenser and see if the larger copper pipe to the compressor is ice cold and sweaty, if not you may need freon
