• Description:

  This genuine Ford HVAC heater water hose, part number YL2Z-18472-CA, is the factory coolant hose that routes engine coolant to and from the heater core for the 2000 and later Ford Explorer and its Sport and Sport Trac derivatives. The hose carries hot coolant from the engine cooling system into the heater core inside the HVAC case, where that heat is used to warm the cabin and support windshield defrost, then returns the coolant to the engine. It is molded to the original Ford shape with the correct length, bends, and end fittings so it clears surrounding components and connects securely without kinking. Common reasons to replace this hose include coolant leaks, soft, swollen, cracked, or hardened rubber, weeping at the connections, or loss of heat inside the cabin. A failing coolant hose can lead to overheating and loss of interior heat, so timely replacement is important. Installing the correct genuine molded hose restores proper coolant flow to the heater core and reliable cabin heat. Verify the model year and engine against your vehicle before ordering, as heater hose routing varies by application.
