Air Con Compressor?

Post by tomsaunders » Wed Apr 01, 2026 2:10 pm

Ford Probe
2.5 24v
1997
Alpine Green
Black leather

Hi folks I’m looking at a 97 24v and have followed the really useful buying guide (thanks for that by the way!)
I’m trying to confirm the car has a/c. According to the brochure I was able to obtain on eBay the 97 24v’s should have it as standard, I believe. However I can’t easily see the compressor located towards the front bumper as mentioned in the buying guide

Pics attached - any advice appreciated! Can anyone see the compressor?

Regards
Tom

The compressor is attached to the engine, under the alternator
