Description

The Auto Care AC8206 (cross-referenced widely as the Four Seasons 35988 relay)

is an A/C Compressor Control / Cut-Out and Radiator Fan Controller Relay

that primarily fits

Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built between 1981 and 1996

Depending on the specific engine size and sub-model configurations, this 1980s and early-90s vintage relay is a direct match for the following vehicles:

Ford Escort (1981–1996)
Ford Mustang (1982–1983, 1990)
Ford Thunderbird (1985–1988)
Ford Ranger (1986–1992)

?? What Does It Do?

In these vehicle applications, the relay handles two main high-amperage cooling tasks:

A/C Compressor Cut-Out: It cycles electrical power to your A/C compressor's magnetic clutch when you toggle the dashboard controls.
Engine Cooling Fan: It kicks on your radiator fan motor when the vehicle is running warm or when the air conditioner is turned on.
