I couldn't find a diagram of those vacuum connections. If only one line is disconnected then look for an open hose nipple on the AC control assembly and that should be where it goes. Those vac lines supply actuators which move diverters in the duct system that activate the different climate control system modes.

2003 Ford focus vacuum line diagram

Hi,

you can call Ford and ask them to email you the vacuum line diagram. Otherwise, you would need to reach out to local Ford dealers to ask them to email you the diagram.

Thank you.

I got stuck in snow bank used my 4x4 and now it wont come out of 4x4

Take a look at the vacuum disconnect motor on the front axle ( picture below ) to see if it is trying to move. Item #10 in this picture

Close up
sscullys_110.jpg

IF this is not moving, could be :
1. The transfer case contact plates are not signaling the GEM ( Generic Electronics Module ) that the truck is changing mode from 4WD to 2WD. Check the connector on the side of the transfer case.
2. Vacuum is not being applied to the pink vacuum line on the vacuum disconnect motor ( 2WD mode, light blue is 4WD ). Check with a vacuum gauge that there is vacuum there.

2002 ford f150 four wheel drive front hubs not going into fourwheel drive

Is the system ESOF ( Electronic Shift On the Fly ) or MSOF ( Mechanical Shift On the Fly ) ?

If you have already tested to find the front drive shaft locks into place, and the front axle is the cause, looks to the front vacuum disconnect shift motor.
Item #10 in the parts diagram below :
sscullys_1.gif

Close up of it ( this is a picture from another person's bracket that broke ) :
sscullys_51.jpg

Chances are the vacuum lines to the vacuum disconnect motor are cracked, the vacuum solenoids are not working correctly, or the vacuum to the solenoids is having an issue ( the reservoir ) :
Vacuum diagram for the shift motor
sscullys_52.jpg

The pink line is vacuum for 2WD operation ( unlocks the axle ) the light blue vacuum line is for 4WD operation ( locks the axle ).

You can test right at the vacuum disconnect motor with a vacuum gauge with the motor running. Unplug the shift motor, and check for vacuum right at the motor.

Could be the shift motor has a damaged diaphragm and not holding vacuum or has water in it ( saw that 1 time ).

Start with checking for vacuum. Also check the fuses for the vacuum solenoids, the power is always at the solenoid, ground is switched on and off by the GEM ( Generic Electronics Module ) to operate them

My 2001 ford supercrew wont engage into 4 wheel drive

Lift and support the front of the truck so the front wheels are off the ground ( take safety precautions, chock wheels, jack stands, etc )
Key on, engage 4x4 and try to turn the front drive shaft.
If it turns it is a problem with the transfer case.
If it doesn't it is a front axle engagement problem.

If the front axle does not turn, the cause generally has to do with the Vacuum disconnect motor on the axle ( Item #10 in this picture ) :
sscullys_0.gif
Close Up :
sscullys_11.jpg

The vacuum disconnect motor is operated by the vacuum axle disconnect solenoids on the firewall
sscullys_12.jpg

You can test from here with a vacuum pump ( i.e. mightvac ) to see if the vacuum lines to the vacuum disconnect motor are good.
The pink vacuum line is 2WD operation, the Light Blue vacuum line is 4WD operation.
If the vacuum lines test good from here to the disconnect motor, and applying vacuum locks the front axle, it is either the vacuum solenoids, or the vacuum reservoir behind the battery, or the vacuum lines to the solenoids.
The solenoids have + VDC all the time, and the GEM applies ground to the correct solenoid to engage or disengage the front axle.

The transfer case will not shift into 4 wheel hi or low 4 wheel drive auto with elect shift

I would suspect the vacuum disconnect motor or the vacuum solenoids for the disconnect motor ( or the vacuum lines ), but best to confirm
Lift and support the front of the truck so the front wheels are off the ground ( take safety precautions, chock wheels, jack stands, etc )
Key on, engage 4x4 and try to turn the front drive shaft.
If it turns it is a problem with the transfer case.
If it doesn't it is a front axle engagement problem.

With the engine running ( and wheel chocked, parking brake on ) have someone shift into 4WD, and watch the shift motor to see if it operates
It is on the front axle, looks like this
85ec248.jpg

If the disconnect motor does not shift, you can check the vacuum on the lines with a vacuum gauge. Blue line is 4WD operation, pink line is 2WD operation.
The vacuum solenoids are on the firewall, and look like this
50a3265.jpg

This is the block diagram for the ESOF vacuum operation of the disconnect motor.

This is assuming you have checked the fuses for the transfercase shift motor, and the vacuum solenoids.
