      Don't take your dash apart. I changed mine out in maybe 5 minutes from beginning to end. Remove the blower motor from passenger door area, reach up there and squeeze the blend door and you can get it out through the motor opening. The replacement went right in the same way. Put the right side upward first. Might help to take the actuator off prior, but not needed

      @@ryanwesterlink6847 Might I ask you to (suggest to you) that you make a short video showing that since it is only 5 minutes. Sounds like you would help a ton of people. I now don't know if I want to fix mine if a new one is just going to have the actuator do a 360 and break the new one. But, yeah, if you could do a video and post to this comment so I could see it, I would super appreciate it.

      @@ryanwesterlink6847I’m worried the new parts will self destruct too if the hvac controller tells the actuator to rotate more than required. That’s the part I was hoping to see figured out.

    I had an old Maglite that was amazing and I lost it at some point and have no idea what happened to it. I have a newer LED model and it's horrible. You can hear the batteries shaking around inside and it will randomly turn off. It's also nowhere near as bright as a small, cheapo, rechargeable flashlight I got for Christmas or something. Was hoping to find a fix but I don't think I want anything to do with Maglite anymore.

    You ended my frustrations and for that I thank you! Every other video I watched kept saying 2mm hex and I simply thought that the bolt was stripped. As soon as you said torx, I ran to get my Xbox controller tool and wouldn’t you know, I got the switch loose, popped the corroded batteries out and have a working flashlight again!! Thank you so very much kind sir!!

    Thank you for posting this. Our van was fogging badly an the flap was stuck in the re-circulation position. I didn't care about the re-circ mode so I got the lower glove box door hanging down and cut the plastic screen on 3 sides and put my hand in and pulled the door back into the fresh air position and put a couple screws through the plastic housing to keep the door from moving. Very simple solution to a potentially dangerous problem!

      I did exactly as you said. Worked great! I have never used the re-circ system on any car I have owned so I won't miss it. Took less than 5 minutes.

    Back in the 90's I bought a nice set of torx screwdrivers. Modlar design [one handle with long interchangeable bits] because... so many small appliances use torx. Drills, vacuums, you name it. I think it was made by Wera, and man that comes in handy. When you need it, you need it.

    For older model Maglites, the Allen Key needed is 5/64. For newer, LED models, it is a Torx 8 (T-8). I found that my Craftsman T-8 was a tight squeeze, but did not need to be thinned out on a grinder. Thanks for the video!!
