Turn ignition off. Remove left side lower column cover. Remove ABS control module. Remove mode door actuator connector. Remove mode door actuator. To install, reverse removal procedure. Perform calibration/diagnostics procedure.

The HVAC control module stores trouble codes that a proper reader can retrieve. The system is electronic and the blend door actuator has a specific procedure to calibrate it. The actuator is under drivers side.

1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the silencer panel from under the driver s side of the instrument panel.
3. Remove the ABS control module.
4. Disconnect the electrical connector from the blend door actuator being serviced.
5. Remove the actuator mounting screws and the actuator.

After it's fixed you might want to recalibrate it. Or you can try recalibrating to see if it begins working first.

CALIBRATION/DIAGNOSTICS TEST ENTRY TO INITIATE TESTS:

Set Blower motor "on high".
Set Mode position to panel.
Open all A/C outlets.
Set Temperature to Cold (Both slide pots if equipped).
Depress WASH and REAR WIPER button simultaneously for five Seconds (Until all LED's light).

RESULTS:
All LED's will turn on for five Seconds.
Calibration Test is running when rear wiper and intermittent are alternately. flashing. Cool down test is running if A/C and RECIRC are alternately flashing.
Acceptable results is REAR WIPER LED is the only LED flashing. Push Rear Wiper to exit.

Try pulling fuse inside car first for sixty seconds with key on then reinstall that may make it work. Otherwise see pictures.

Thanks for using 2CarPros we are to help, tell a friend.

Best, Ken

Just install it then you pull the fuse so it will reset to correct position needs to be done with key on.

Try to move door with hand or square drive socket if you have one 1/4" drive would be best if you force the actuator it may break or try turning key on with electrical hooked up to actuator and pull fuse it may go to correct position like that.

Fuse 3 in junction block.
