Hello,

I have had good cool air in my car listed above all summer. However, now it's getting cooler, and I need heat. I have changed both actuators under the passenger side dash behind glove box. However, only cool air blows still. Is the actuator in question the one on the driver's side? Can I just manually turn the blend door for heat and then turn it back next Summer?

Hello,

When you change the temperature from cold to hot, does the temperature change on the passenger side or does it feel the same on both sides? Technically there's not a way to turn the temp door and leave it there. Also if you can have the car in a quiet setting, you can hear the motors move, possibly even skipping. Please let me know what you find.
