I can't get the glove box out to check and possibly replace the blend air actuator on the passenger side.

I am attaching a lot of information that shows how to remove the parts needed to access and replace the blend door. Let me know what you find and if you have other issues and we can try to figure that out.

This is just a guide that will help in more general terms but I think what you need is attached. Thanks

Thank you KASEKENNY1.
I just noticed the diagram that shows 4 screws at the bottom of the glove box but I only found 3. The glove box seems like it it loose but is being hardheaded like the rest of this Jones family. I'll check in the morning and see if there is a 4th screw at the bottom of the box to the far left. Thanks again and I will update on my progress.

Never did get the glove box off, lol. But the good news is I guess the blend door started working again and the heat and A/C work great. I'm in East Texas and I needed the A/C today.
Thanks again for your help.
