I checked system it comes up with 9 blinks on self-test. Code states problems in the air mix linkage, door or motor. I located the actuator that is not functioning. It works sometimes, other times it will not move. I looked under dash and located it, my problem is the fuse box panel is in the way, can I lower fuse panel without disconnecting it so I can reach it? I am not able to send pic too hard to see with it in the way or is there another way to reach it I do not see one. Thanks

Sure, you can remove the fuse panel and leave the wiring connected, but I would disconnect the battery first, here are the instructions on how to replace the actuator correctly in case you need it. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
