2007 ford taurus - AC compressor bypass

Asked by ShadeTreeAmateur Jan 03, 2017 at 11:53 AM about the 2007 Ford Taurus SE Fleet

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

AC compressor seized.  Not interested in replacing it.  It looks like the engine
has to be lowered in order to remove the compressor to replace or even to
install a bypass pulley.  DOes anyone have a workaround?

No, you either replace the AC bearing or take it out and put in the AC delete pulley.

Not sure if you found a solution, but in my 04 Dodge stratus I just put a smaller serpentine belt in and completely bypassed the a/c compressor. Not sure if that would work on a Taurus or not
