What position do the 2 actuator arms need to be at when replacing the actuator?

When you say mode control actuator, I assume you are talking about the HVAC system? If so, you should set mode to defrost and then replace the actuator.

Let me know if this is not what you are referring too and we can figure out what other info you need. Thanks
