    I took an hvac class, and after teaching us how vacuum recovery works, the teacher said "now you definitely can't just use all these techniques and equipment to service your car, thats clearly totally different"

    Great video thanks. If there is hot air coming out one side and cold air the other - could that be the acuator?

    Is it true objects like screws or pencil rolling down the dash and falling through the defroster vent under the windshield can wedge a moving part and then break the actuator that way?

    Awesome video so brilliantly explained👌👍
    I wonder what is the cause of heating not responding to the command and if you leave it on while driving, it comes on , on it's own accord 🤔 sometimes 15mn or 1hr or not coming on at all during that trip🥶. Also during the summer time, with the heating off , you can feel some warm air coming through the vents 🥵 so so annoying 😑 and yes I almost forgot , the vehicle is Citroen C4. Many thanks 😊 🙏

    I've got hot and cool air, and flow from both the dash vents and uper vents but I have no flow from the floor vents when I select the floor vent. after watching I still can't tell if that's an acuator problem or a door problem

    Shoot hoping to not have to remove assembly. Heater not responding. Flushed core and replaced HW valve, no go. Blend door actuator is stuffed behind assembly and inside firewall. Have to remove everything just to look at possible core air passage blockage (blower cage was full of leaves) or if door is stuck. Can't get to door fulcrum without removing whole unit. I wonder how common it is to have to do that. I will definitely examine core and evaporator for possible replacement.

    Convenient video - I got an 05 4runner with four vents going across the dash. The two vents near the center of the dash do not blow heat/AC at all but the outer vents near the doors work perfectly…any thoughts?

    Is the recirculation mode button connected to the blend door actuator too? Or is that controlled by another actuator somewhere else?

    I have a 2010 Ford Edge Limited with a bad driver side Blend Door Actuator. The climate control actuator is near the driver's gas pedal, and of course the passenger's side actuator is behind the glove box. This vehicle does have dual zone. My issue is where is the Driver's Side Blend Door Actuator located at? TY!

    There's a distinct smell after running the heater,I checked both air filters what else can I do🤔.
    It smells like carbon dioxide monoxide of the two.

      Is your exhaust system clogged?
      I know 100% one of those is odorless.
      I'd have the exhaust system checked. I had a customer that had that problem but didn't mention the odor coming through his vents.
      Hope this helps.
