    Another success story! I did test my old sensor but it was reading high at 5v.
    (Unlike OP who was reading low).
    When I passed the magnet negative side the value would drop but when the positive side passed by no significant change.
    Thanks OP for a great write up.
    Does anyone know why the new sensor has the epoxy on the back.
    (The new one has multiple colors)

    Is there any common leak points on these? I have a 13 model 4.0 that I just got that the air is blowing, the light is staying on and not blinking, the compressor is coming on and so is the clutch, but I’m just getting warm air.

    what would you guys do next? Check pressures?

    If you have a UV light look for dye on the lines, hoses, compressor, condenser, evaporator drain, etc.
    Other than that yea need to check pressures and see.

    So my flashing AC saga is hopefully over. Dealership had the truck 3 different times for the same issue. It eventually ended up being a loose pin in the wiring at the compressor. Not sure if this was the original issue or if it was created somewhere along the way.
