Thank you for this video! You saved me $500 at the dealership!

@nukedim2276 2 года назад

I've got a 2017 Ford Fusion SE. A/C is fine, but only heat on driver side and cold air on pasenger side. Hope same culprit as in your video. Thanks for a professional tutorial step by step. 👍

@MichaelAdamsRocks 2 года назад

No problem! Yeah, it sounds like one of those temperature door actuators are bad.

Man, you're a god! Dealer wanted $550 for this. I'm guessing it's similar for my 2014 Edge. Thank you, sir!

@therealdisston 4 месяца назад

Thanks. Good info. Those Phillips screws are PH2. I bought a 1/4 hex drive ratchet and bit set on Amazon to get them out. I bought Horusdy's kit. I was able to get the bootom screw out with my standard 1/4 socket ratchet set, a long extension and a universal. The Horusdy small ratchet did the upper screw. . Subscribed to your channel. Thanks again.

@omarmolina8970 3 года назад

hello I have a 2013 ford fusion and when I turn on the air conditioning it makes a noise when the air speed increases

@johncrear7972 9 месяцев назад

hi! for the future, please show the full process. you did not show how to remove the under part of the glovebox. this made it hard to reach the actuator to unscrew it. other than that, great video.

@pindowskivich Год назад

Best instructional video I've seen. So, when it won't switch from defrost to dash vent or floor, is that an actuator too?

@MichaelAdamsRocks Год назад

Yeah, that’s a separate actuator that controls the blend door panel.

@jameslacombe5211 Год назад

@@MichaelAdamsRocks Is that the main/mode actuatpr that you have to replace for the defrost and head/foot vents?

@aimeeverzi9060 Год назад

My 2012 fusion won’t blow air the regular vents, only the heater and defrost ones, could this be the problem?

@MichaelAdamsRocks Год назад

Possibly the blend door actuator, not this one

@noahyap Месяц назад

Have you fixed yours ? I’m having the same problem now. Only going to defrost and leg not the front facing vents

@itsmetheuglykid 3 года назад

My HVAC is stuck at the defrost vents. Is this the actuator that changes the vents or only the temperature?

@MichaelAdamsRocks 3 года назад

This one is just for temperature

@acesblackstar Год назад

I called myself following your video and fixing my issue however when I plug in the new actuator and change the climate on the passenger side it doesn't move and this is the second one any suggestions?

@MichaelAdamsRocks Год назад

It’s hard to say without actually being there first hand, but if the actuator still isn’t working, then there may either be a wiring issue or the actual control unit is failing would be my guess. Or the door itself may be stuck or broken.

@acesblackstar Год назад

@MichaelAdamsRocks yea the gear would not turn on the old one or the new one my heat and air work perfectly on the driver side but this passenger side just stays cold

@bobomomo3764 Год назад

Since it's not a dual climate control ... Can a broken blend door actuator cause vent coming out cold from one side and hot from the other? Do u know if that's possible? Or only on dual systems

@diegozunino9648 Год назад

my god, did you disassemble the whole car to remove a blend door motor? How crazy is that.

@carstenwilliams7733 Год назад

I've had a replacement 4 times same side. 2017 Ford Fusion 2.7. Just replaced mine and put a new air filter in.. Ford has the crappiest blendure motors.

@carstenwilliams7733 3 года назад

I replace that 1. And I did the same thing again. So can you tell me where The can you tall me were the other 2 Glendore Actuato. Located at motors are located at?? If you could please get back to me I have a 2017 ecoboost sport

@jeffh.2588 2 года назад

Mine has warm air on the driver side, and semi cold on the passenger. I tried to change the blend door actuator on the driver side; however, the old one I thought was broken worked just as well as the new one, so I don't think the driver side was the problem. Im about to swap the passenger side actuator. wish me luck.

@xavierv4630 2 года назад

how did that work because i have the same issue

@zcsrs Год назад

Have you confirmed the passenger's actuator issue affected the driver's temp?

@jeffh.2588 Год назад

Nope. Things have gotten out of hand. I have to bring it to a mechanic. I’m having trouble getting the passenger side blend door back on. I have to alter the temps tire by hand. They charged my a/c and said I should be good. However, a month later, there was, again, warm air on the driver side and cold on the passenger.

@chapterumteenth 11 месяцев назад

Darn , I was hopeful to read a better outcome . I’m having the same issue. Took out actuator on passenger , waiting for part , meanwhile car won’t start..(after replacing the hard to reach driver side actuator to find out that wasn’t the issue)

@johncrear7972 9 месяцев назад

did y’all every find out how? i have the same issue and apparently peoples cars aren’t starting when they try this method

@IFLTW 3 года назад

I have a single zone 2013 Ford Fusion SE one side is shooting cold and driver side is shooting hot. Would that still be the actuator? And is it also located behind glove box or would it be on driver side? Thank you.

@MichaelAdamsRocks 3 года назад

On single zone models like this one, the only actuator is being the glove box. If it’s a duel zone system, there is an actuator up in the dash on the drivers side. However, if you have a single zone model and you’re getting different temperatures from opposite sides of the dash, the issue may be deeper than an actuator. There might be something wrong inside the HAVC box.

@michaelcelaya8924 3 года назад

@@MichaelAdamsRocks would you be able to elaborate about the HVAC box? I have cold air coming out of one vent and the rest are hot but I hear the actuator working and when I switch to heat the cold vent gets hot. I'm at a loss

@leondel7480 3 года назад

@@michaelcelaya8924 did you ever figure it out? I’m having the same problem. The driver side vent is throwing out hot air and the passenger side is coolish. When I turn the temperature to hot it’s “hot” but the cold isn’t working .

@MichaelAdamsRocks 2 года назад

Possibly. The actuator could have died in the heat position.

@amyshock6310 Год назад

I have the exact same problem, in addition, I get air coming from defrost only. Sounds like i have 2 bad actuators. Anyone have a clue where the other actuator is located? Please help, Im freezing my ass off!

@MichaelAdamsRocks Год назад

The other temperature actuator (I believe) is on the opposite side of this one, so it would be on the driver’s side of the center stack.

@mayrabocanegra 2 года назад

I have a 2017 ford fusion se. When I turn on the ac, it blows hot air on the driver's side, & cold air in the passenger side. I have a single zone climate control panel. Do you think I would need to replace the actuator ?

Not this one, but there is a blend door actuator that would be responsible for that. It’s usually deeper into the dashboard.
