I own the exact same truck and a couple of months ago the passenger side started blowing cold air and no heat. I bought the part online and just installed today. Took me a little over two hours and I only lost one screw. Thanks so much for the tutorial. Now I have heat again and it’s glorious!
Just wanted to drop in and say thanks. I used your video to replace mine today in my 2013 Lariat. Cost me $40 buck for the part and about 2 hours to do. Ford wanted $900 to do it because they said it would be a 5 hour job!! Thanks again.
Great video and got my A/C fixed for the Texas Summer. I have a 2014 King Ranch 4x4 and everything you said was spot on. Took me about 2 hours of blood, sweat, and swears. Most of the time was spent trying to detach the back bolt of the blend door. Found that an 8mm ratcheting wrench did the trick coming up through the glove box with one hand and guiding it to the bolt with the other hand going through the screen area.
That's awesome 👍 happy it helped
Now I have to figure out my mirror and rear window heat and defrost switch isn't working I'll do a video on that
@@MakeMoneyTrucking I have this heater issue, broken sun roof, broken passenger window, broken passenger seat control and broken rear defroster and broken rear camera. Ford electronics suck 😢
🙏🙏🙏🙏 thank you so much for detailed explanation and I followed exactly same and changed blend door actuator on passenger on 2014 SVT Raptor. Thanks Kerby for suggesting to take battery off while loosing the 3 nuts under airbag.
Thanks for the video. So much help. Got it done in just under 2 hours.
Great video, those others had the console removed, shifter, side panels.
Glad I seen this, knew all that never had to go to do this job.
Thanks for the heads up on the work!!
Happy to help 👍
Took me a while to find this video for my specific 2014 F150 Fx4 Ecoboost model. Finding this video helped more than others. First time since I bought it last year that all my heat vents work. $22 part and this video (and my daughter’s small arms to get that back screw out. Thanks.
No problem thought it would help 🙂
You left the good part out of you cursing out that screw in the back 😂. It’s a doozy
Yes lol
Thanks - looked a bit intimidating but I followed per your video step by step and 1 hour later, have cold when on cold and hot when on hot - went exceedingly well. My only suggestion would be to disconnect the battery cable as you are playing around with the air bag (not sure if this actually helps but all other videos that play with an air bag suggest it). Thanks again - enjoy.
Glad it worked out
Hey! This video helped me tremendously in teplacing my blend door actuator. It took me around three hours and that’s only because I got the wrong part so I had to go out and find one. Wasn’t too bad of a job. It was just harder reinstalling everything. Thanks again for your post. It was very helpful.
Thanks. It was actually pretty easy. For the back screw, I used the brute method and ripped it out. Pry up the motor to get the gear out of the hole and give it a twist and yank with channel locks. Remove the back screw and leave it out. Too many parts....
That's one way of doing it lol
I have a 2014 Lariat Ecoboost. I’m not a mechanic. Can a non mechanic do this job? Sounds like the back screw is the nightmare.
“We have hot air, also known as heat” 😂😂 good vid tho man 👍🏽
Thank you!!
No problem 👍
I just ran into this problem in my 2014 f150 lariat last night and just fixed it this morning thanks to your video, appreciate it brother 🙌
@@raynoe1507 happy it helped 😀👍
100k on truck first issued I ever had
Hey, great vid! Since you have dual climate control are there two actuators to troubleshoot or just the one? My 14/Limited has no heat on drivers side only.
Thanks
Thanks I'm not sure I believe there is only 1 that was called out online
No one had a video showing replacement with loaded interior hopefully this helps took me a couple hours
Really wish you showed the way you took it all out and how you had to battle the space with more lighting, and was it making a clicking noise when trying to switch to say the window defrost to the cabin vents? But thanks for the video
Really wasn't alot of battling if you take everything I took out.
No clicking just wasn't getting hot on heat
Mine has been clicking, but I have no heat, even though you can hear it on. The A/C works fine though.
Mine is making a clicking noise when I select the main front vents, the moment I change it to the floor vents it goes away. I’m not having any problems with hot or cold not working, mine is only when I’m changing the vent location button. Same actuator or a different one?
I'm not sure if there is another actuator or if it's the same one I would guess it's another actuator possibly
@@MakeMoneyTrucking I found it was the mode door actuator. Replaced it and works great now. it was about a $35 part and took about 15 minutes to install. Definitely helps if you remove the three bolts on the gas pedal and just move that to the side while you’re putting in the new actuator.
I had the exact same issue. There is another one above the gas pedal. Which I would have seen this before I replaced the other one!
The bottom plastic panels were removed just to get the side pieces off right? No hard ware or screws?
Yes correct
hey I have a question, my 2014 ford f-150 is blowing air as soon as I turn my truck on. The Ac is set at OFF and the light but air is still blowing at like middle speed. I turn the truck off and it turns off. I even turn the ac on and the air get cold or hot and blows at all three setting..... I cant figure out why its blowing air non stop....... need a hand
Could be the electronic switch itself or a faulty blower motor if it is continuously blowing I would replace the switch and then the blower motor. If those don't work the blendor box or flap module could be bad that switches hot to cold
Any chance you can access the one on the driver side with these steps or would I have to take the center console apart to get to that one?
I'm not sure if there is one on the driver side
The one on the driver’s side is above the gas pedal. You can remove the 3 gas pedal bolts and then you have pretty good access
I went and bought a new actuator from ford dealer and I did installation but still clinking noise.not sure at this point! Any suggestions?
I wonder if the mechanism that the actuator controls is broken might be a blend door or something deeper in the system that is clicking
I thought so.
I'm having a issue where I get ether COLD AIR or HOT AIR not in-between gonna try to swap this part and see if it helps
Did it work? I would really like to find out as I am having the same issue
Im right in the middle if the project, so hopefully its the bkend door actuator, and not the mode door actuator, as some have attributed to the clicking noise. A few thoughts, for the less mechanically minded (insert me), is your wording when mentioning the removal of screws. You kept mentioning "loosening" them. So when it came to the airbag, I checked a few places on how to remove it, and it was as you stated except to remove them. Lastly, for now, Im at the point of removing the trim A/C around the screen (even removed the bottom bolts, but it isn't moving not even loose to the touch.where did I go wrong? Did I mention I followed every move, up to this point?
Mode actuator controls vent location
Blend controls temperature
@@ripptydevibes2581 so I got the blend door replaced only to find (after the fact) it was the mode door actuator. Oh well, guess it's par the course.
What radio do you have installed. I’d like to change out my stock 4in non touch radio with something like yours not necessarily a Tesla style radio.
They make an aftermarket tesla style radio
I have the stock radio that comes with the higher trim f150 models its factory from Ford
Ok, I’m trying to find something plug and play like the radio you have installed in my ‘14 fx4. I don’t really dig the Tesla style tho. Thanks for the reply!
It's just a stock ford radio that comes in the higher trim models might be able to add one in not sure
What is the motorcraft part number for the eco boost?
I'm not sure but it should be the same I got this part at autozone if I remember correctly
How long did this take?
Buenos días tengo esta misma y Lla le escanciado todo y no me funciona me falta cabviarle el módulo del quiché le agradesco si me aluda Grasias
Is there a risk of the passenger air bag going off?!?!?
Don't think so just don't hit the back of the air bag or drop the air bag
@@MakeMoneyTrucking Shit now I’m nervous!!!
Can anyone send me the link for this part thanks
FOMOCO YH-1933
This was for a 2014 F-150 with the 5.0 engine.
Not sure that would make a difference, but didn't want to leave pertinent info out. Also based on VIN#.
