Hello,

You to start removing lower dash covers and then use a flashlight to locate the actuator. Some spot are a little tight use 1/4 drive tools to remove the actuators.

Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.

Cheers, Ken

Yes, I believe you need to have the part initialized before it will work. This will cost about $130.00 at a shop to have done.

Here are the instructions and diagrams below:

Removal and Installation

1. Remove the instrument panel. For additional information, refer to Instrument Cluster / Carrier &/or Interior Moulding / Trim.

2. Disconnect the LH temperature blend door actuator electrical connector.

3. Remove the 2 LH temperature blend door actuator screws.

4. Remove the LH temperature blend door actuator.

5. Disconnect the in-vehicle temperature sensor aspirator hose connection.

6. Disconnect the DEFROST/PANEL/FLOOR mode door actuator electrical connector.

7. Remove the 3 DEFROST/PANEL/FLOOR mode door actuator and cam assembly screws.

8. Remove the DEFROST/PANEL/FLOOR mode door actuator and cam assembly.

9. To install, reverse the removal procedure.

10. NOTE: The purpose of the module actuator position calibration is to allow the HVAC module to reinitialize and calibrate the actuator stop points. To carry out calibration, carry out the following steps.

Remove the Smart Junction Box (SJB) fuse 15 for at least one minute. See: Power and Ground Distribution > Electrical > Power Distribution Diagrams

11. NOTE: When the ignition switch is switched to the ON position, the HVAC module will initialize and calibrate the actuators. Calibration of the actuators will take approximately 30 seconds.

Reinstall SJB fuse 15. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and wait 30 seconds before verifying correct DEFROST/PANEL/FLOOR operation.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find.

Hi and thanks for using CarPros.

The air flow directions is controlled by a mode door actuator. Here are the directions for replacement.

Here are the specific directions.
Removal and Installation

See pic 2

NOTE: The LH temperature blend door actuator can be accessed from below the LH side of the instrument panel to the right of the accelerator pedal.

1. Disconnect the LH temperature blend door actuator.

2. Remove the 2 LH temperature blend door actuator screws.

3. Remove the LH temperature blend door actuator.

4. To install, reverse the removal procedure.

5. NOTE: The purpose of the module actuator position calibration is to allow the HVAC module to reinitialize and calibrate the actuator stop points. To carry out calibration, carry out the following steps.
