How did you confirm this was the actuator that was clicking? I would suggest getting it clicking and then unplug the actuator and if it stops then clearly that is it. If that is the actuator that you replaced, then unfortunately you got a faulty part. This has happened to me just recently. Replaced my sister in laws blend door actuator and 10 minutes into her trip home it started clicking. Replaced it again, and it was all good.

Let us know what happens when you unplug it and we can go from there. Thanks

Awesome. Thanks for the update and unfortunately you are now on the long list of us that have replaced actuators with a defective part. Unfortunately it is all too common. Thanks for using 2CarPros.
