Blend Air Door Actuator

Blend Air Door Spline

Pull actuator straight down from shaft and disconnect electrical connection. Upon removal, note the shaft position of the actuator, because the shaft on this motor is keyed. When installing new actuator, its shaft must be positioned in the same location.
INSTALLATION
For installation, reverse the above procedures.

Is there an image showing the location? Is it located between the tunnel and heater case? If so there doesn't look like much room to lower the actuator down and off of the shaft.
Could you please provide instructions to remove right side under panel?
Thanks

Roy,

Do you have a picture of the HAVC assembly that shows locations of components? As you might know the location is very tight and I want to make sure I removing the proper actuator.

Thanks

Ian
