When I’m driving my car I notice that the windows fog up randomly at night, when it rains, or if I have the heat up all the way. I’ve noticed that it stays in fresh air mode but when I switch it over to recirculate and switch it back I don’t hear anything click or make any changes. I was guessing it was the actuator just stuck in recirculate. Any advice?

Good afternoon,

This could be the re-circulation actuator no working.

I attached the location of the actuator.

Thank you I appreciate the help. Is there a specific part number for this part that will make it easier to find?
