Not a bad idea at all. This one is just on a bathroom and with the door being bigger than the opening you can’t see it so I didn’t feel the need to modify it too much.
@brycesapp7601Ай бұрын
Just finished fixing my truck using this video. My truck was thumping/knocking loudly every time the key was turned on, even if the HVAC was off. I felt at each of the actuators and it was hard to tell which one it was, because the knocking is transmitted through the entire ductwork so you can feel it at all of the actuators. But it seemed worst at this lower actuator. I followed the suggestion in another comment and only cut the top half of the vent, and then unclipped and removed the top half, leaving the bottom half in place. This allowed the top of the duct to be reattached later. I just used a long sawzall blade with duct tape wrapped around one end to use as a handle. Your blade can't be very tall or else it will hit some other plastic pieces and wont reach all the way to the far side of the duct. I made that mistake initially. You should poke around with the blade and reach around behind the duct with your other hand before you begin sawing and make sure you have snaked the blade successfully through the plastic maze and are actually sawing the entire duct and not just 75% of it. I think sawzall blades are ideal since they taper down to a thin point. I had to get pretty rowdy with a pry bar to flex the duct enough to get the old motor out, but nothing broke, so the ducts seem pretty resilient. If you have left the lower half of the duct in place like I did, make sure you pull the carpet out from underneath it so that it can be flexed down that extra tiny amount without being held up by the carpet. The new motors all seem to come with the missing tooth pointed directly forward. I tore apart the old broken actuator and took out the old male spline piece and marked it using a sharpie so that I could use it as a tool to orient the female socket correctly to match the new motor. This worked really well and the new motor instantly went into place easily. I also pulled fuse 46 in the passenger footwell once I was done, which supposedly does some sort of recalibration on the actuators; not sure if necessary or not, but didn't hurt anything. Thank you for the video.

How could Ford not have made that duct in two pieces so that the interfering part of the duct could be removed and then snapped back in place after swapping the blend-door motor. Actually I think you or I or anyone who knows how to weld plastic could maybe add a collar to the removed piece (using lap joints) so it would fit neatly back onto the stub and would be easily removeable in the future.

Leave it be it's fine. I overfill my 95z28 camaro v8 with 1/2 an extra quart of oil 🛢 every summer ☀️ on purpose in south Texas I've owned the car for 14 years and it has a little over 330k miles on the car it is a 5 speed standard transmission and I change the oil every 5k miles and I use mobil one synthetic oil. I drive very conservative and my wife drives like a maniac it runs great flawlessly. My brother in law drives an 18 wheeler and he puts an extra quart in every oil change on purpose in the summer time although those are much bigger oil pans obviously. 😂 Kenworth W900 chrome with a cummins turbo diesel engine. Dark green and chrome with over 2 million miles on it. I drool seeing the truck every 4th of July BBQ cookout with the family every year. He's been driving his current truck for the last 9 years since he started his own company. After thought though engines run on un-level terrain all the time going up and down hils and mountains ⛰️ engines are designed with some extra space in mind I think. 1/2 quart on a camry or a corrolla won't hurt nothing or even if as high as 1 quart extra on a 1 ton truck even I'd think would be fine. Not enough oil bad and higher oil temperatures and obviously less lubrication available in the oil pan sump and to much of Any good thing can become a bad thing 😅

@justthetipgarage53053 ай бұрын
If it’s the drivers side then it’s this actuator (the one on the bottom) id pull it out but leave it plugged in and test it to make sure it moves like it’s supposed to. Sounds like it’s either a bad actuator or not plugged in all the way. Etc. might also be a stuck blend door and the actuator can’t move it. You can reach in there and move the door manually with the old spline or sometimes a finger.

I’m having a similar problem with my 2017 F250 lariat, only difference is my ac and heated seats do nothing. The lights come on and you can hear a slight fan noise in the seats with the ac seat on but nothing happens. I’m curious if the same “heating element” in the seat does heat and ac or if I’m having a separate problem all together. I checked the common issue of the ground pin being burnt up in the scme module under the passenger seat but all the pins look fine. So not sure if I have the same problem as you or if my scme module is bad. Any insight from anyone would be greatly appreciated!

To the best of my knowledge they’re 2 different systems. The seat heater is electrical and the ac is basically just blowing cold air up through the cushion.

So I have 2020 ford fusion hybrid plugin. And my ford pass doesn't work. Well after 3 months ford has finally found out why. Well they say that the modem in car is 3g and north America has quit using it and that I would have to upgrade to 4g module and the customer is responsible for the cost. To the tune of $800 and something Canadian funds. I asked ford canada why does my 2020 have 3g but my friends 2017 f150 have the 4g as his still works. Now the only reason I cared was ford dealer told me that because the car was used the other first owner had registered the car with ford pass and that they could start my car from anywhere. So they were going to change out under warranty but yesterday after waiting months for the part ford got ahold of dealer and gave them the 3g excuse. So my problem is why would they put something that doesn't work in newer vehicles. To me sounds like these hybrids were put together with old parts that they could not use in there big sellers like the trucks.
