I need to know how to put a spring on the left side of the AC heat box. It is were the actuator opens the door that moves the air down to your feet.I took the spring off but can't remember how to put it back on.

Okay, so I gave it other shot but no luck. Those pictures don't really show you how the spring is on there. I need to see a picture of the spring in more detail. Whatever you can do to help will be great. Thanks

Nice work. You can see the big part of the spring goes behind the white hook of the arm and I can't see the other end of the spring but it will against the anchor (black) to help pull the door shut. Please let me know and give more picture once it is together.
