1988-1999 Chevy C/K1500 Blend Door Actuator Replacement! Hot/Cold Blend Door

[@denniekorpi5264]

So the Blend door thing you just showed, is that for the hot and cold control of the front heater? I have a situation where my suburban does not have heat. The front control is like stuck on cold.

[@BradfordDIY]

Yes. This one is hot/cold

[@texassteven8988]

Thanks, saved me $350 doing it myself, now have ice cold AC !

[@nikali4828]

This by far, is the best video I’ve seen on here 🙌 thank you so much! I tried looking into this a year ago and some guy had his whole top dash apart 😂

[@LoisBryson-yg4xn]

Thank you for this video. I’m a woman and don’t have a man that I can get to help with minor repairs so I’m learning to do for my self. This video was helpful to me.

[@kevinbell976]

Just froze your vid, and got the part number right off the module itself, good looking out brotha….😊

[@BradfordDIY]

Glad it helped

[@eddiebelmarez8186]

To get the 7/32 nut that's hard to get to I drilled a hole between the lighter and glove box straight threw plastic and metal plate straight to the nut easy peasy

[@cal48koho]

damn! that is an idea!! I may try it

[@kevinbell976]

Very good video my guy, best one I’ve seen so far, my question is what’s the part number to the actuator, i have a 1995 chevy Silverado 1/2 Ton V8 C 1500, Ext Cab, I’m told there are 3 then I’m told there are four, so my parts guy tells me i need the part number to the one i need, ughhhhhhh😮 Kev…

[@BradfordDIY]

There are actually 2. I believe they are the same part tbh

[@gregdoran4394]

I just did one today I had to wrap a bit of electrical tape on socket for finger grip and used one finger on each hand and was able to turn the socket and get that hidden screw out, still a pain in the but and missing some skin😂

[@BradfordDIY]

Man, it was tough. I almost took a Sawzall to the metal...

[@obsjose2621]

Would this work on a 95 Chevy 5.7 c1500? My heater is out and so is my ac. Hoping this be my problem cause I need that heater 🥲

[@BradfordDIY]

Yes, it would. I would check the blower and blower resistor first. Then the other actuator under the driver side. Then maybe the climate control module that you switch every thing with

[@obsjose2621]

@@BradfordDIY Thank you so much I will indeed!

[@nunurbuisness5578]

Mines only blowing through the windshield defrost. It maybe seem silly but it irritates me. I'm also replacing the blower motor resistor so I have full range of fan control not just full power. It's a small thing but I want my truck running as good as it was brand new if not better

[@teodociofortanel7882]

hey there my truck is 1995 c1500 is blowing only on the floor is the same door actuator?

[@BradfordDIY]

I'd say that's the other actuator on the driver's side. Lean down in floor board and look under dash. You'll see it

[@dvm2b06]

i have a 96 gmc suburban k1500 that needs a heater box door and actuator replaced. is the piece you replaced all i need to replace for mine?

[@Hunterkiller313]

There’s a similar looking one under the steering Column. So what’s difference between the both ? Looks like it’s the same part and all.

[@BradfordDIY]

Same part. That one does the different vents.

[@fredrichblue6624]

The one under the steering column is the Mode Actuator; it controls where the air blown to..

[@nobodyishere5871]

Mines making this constant clicking noise

[@jonny80917]

fixes that too

[@BradfordDIY]

Yeah, wish I would have made a better video. This will fix that issue. Sometimes they're slipping. Sometimes they're jammed shut. Make sure the blend door moves before putting in the new one. Get a cheap part on Amazon or rock auto

[@anndrambo]

Mine makes a clicking noise also. How do u figure out which one is it. The clicking noise sounds like it's coming from passenger feet area.

[@EataPeachMike]

Thanks for the video helped out a lot👍

[@wytblur]

Good stuff. Thanks. I have a 99 Chevy Express. Same issue. My reinstall went okay but I have to redo. The door itself was out of position.

[@jerryhansen3215]

Thanks for the tutorial

[@closeyourlegs2255]

That would suck if you put it in and the part was defective.

[@BradfordDIY]

It was lol

[@johneagins9836]

I cut the bracket

[@levieilertson3873]

Working on one thinking it might be bad where it rotates it has a mark on it and on the actuator it has 3 marks the actuator that’s on it now only goes half way is it go from side to side? Thanks

[@BradfordDIY]

Hmm, I'm not sure. Maybe the wrong actuator on it from the last guy?

[@crease725]

Hi, I found that the white clip that goes into the actuator is broken, do you know how to replace this or how to find the part?

[@BradfordDIY]

I'd check rock auto or do some googling. May have to buy a new blend door

[@edgarsosa4129]

Why does my ac blow cold wan parked but blows warm air on passenger side wan l drive it

[@BradfordDIY]

Check the actuators. This one and the other on drivers side before doing anything more

[@abbymendoza2445]

whats the part number for this part

[@jamesmedina2119]

That's not the blend door actuator, it's above & to the right of the gas pedal doorman part number 604-107 That is the temperature actuator, which is why it's stuck on heat! The fresh air actuator, is by the passenger kick panel against the firewall Murray part number DA 1055, Dorman part # is 604-116. You have to search your ass off to find the part numbers because everyone refers to every damn one of them as a blend door actuator. Fuckin come on man!

[@BradfordDIY]

Right… Google mode door vs blend door. Thanks for the comment James
