How to replace Blend Door Actuator on 2014 F-150 Fx4 or similar with Navigation infotainment system. part number Duralast BDAC-1014 / 604-252 #f150 #blenddoor #heateracfix
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!
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.
@@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 😢
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, 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!!
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.
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.
🙏🙏🙏🙏 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.
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....
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
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?
@@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 have the same console as yours in my 2013 raptor. How long would it take if you were to do this again? Ive taken consoles apart before but not this one. It seems difficult.
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
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?
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
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!
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#.
