Is the driver side heat blend door actuator accessible this way or do panels by the accelerator pedal need to be removed?

[@Viktor_G_Automotive]

You do not need to remove the center vents, that won't help you. It is located by the driver's right knee area sort of behind where the stereo is bolted to the side of the HVAC box. It can be challenging to remove and replace the blend door actuator, depending on your skill level. The repair manual advises to remove the complete dash to do it, but if you are skilled, you may be able to access it without doing that.

@@Viktor_G_Automotive thank you! I read that a button could be stuck so I wiggled the hot button and got it to go back to 73 degrees. Maybe not the heat blend door if I am lucky. Thanks for such a quick response 😎
