I watches your video for replacing this part and I removed the panel under the dash but the part is not there. I also looked under the drivers side and its not there either. Where would it be?

Recirculating air switch not working. Outside air, odors and dust are coming inside the cab when the a/c is on and the recirculating air button is turned on. I looked under the dash board and I see that when I change the air vent positions everything works but when I press the recirc button nothing happens. When its cold, if I have the windows up, the a/c off and the recirc air button pressed, outside air and dust still blows through the vents inside the cab. Anyone has the same problem? How can I fix this? Help please.

I found the problem. Found the actuator for the recirculating air flap door and I wiggled around the wires. It started working. Maybe it was the connections or something. I'm sure that the actuator is starting to go bad so I will keep checking until I have to replace it. However, it look like a pain in the ass to do.
