Wouldn’t you put the A.C. ON and OFF, when Checking if it’s blowing Hot or Cold?

[@shanhutchison7332]

Tried this 3x with my 2005 Tahoe. Blows cold for about 5 sec then hot. What did help immensely is you pointing out the location of the actuator. I started my rig, and the moment it blew cold, I disconnected the actuator from power. Constant cold for now. It is summer in south Texas, so I don't mind it being stuck on cold. Thanks for your video. 👍💯😁

[@AnthonyJ350]

Glad you were able to diagnose it!

[@BodyWeakDotNet]

That's the best thing to do... at least in the Summer...i got tired of repeating this ..

[@andyvaldez2830]

Sounds like I may be having the same issue that you had. My 05 Yukon Denali will blow cool air for about 30 seconds to a minute and then warmer air for a about 30 seconds to a minute and this cycle just repeats. It's like the system can't figure out what it needs to do in order to maintain the set temperature.

[@williamjones1166]

I’ve been dealing with this issue for two weeks. Throughout all my searches I finally came across your video. Even my brother, a certified A/C technician, didn’t know this cheat. I applied the technique from your video, and I’m again enjoying a solid cold air flow. With temps being 100* + here in Texas, this has been a life saver.

Thanks to @AnthonyJ350 I just replaced my AC panel in my 05 Chevy SBSC because the LED’s in the temperature and right side were burned but after installation it was blowing only hot air in the driver side and followed the procedure explained in your video and everything is working perfectly fine now. Really appreciated, I asked to an auto AC tech and he was ready to replace compressor and 3 actuators, thank God I found the video. Kudos man 👊🏼🏆

worked for a bit, then went on to full failure mode. Had to replace the actuator (drivers side 2:00 in relation to the gas pedal... easy to see but not easy to work on). fired it up, and thought it wasn't working at first, then I moved the temp knob to 50% and "voila" was greeted with cold refreshing air conditioning on the drivers side again. redid the calibration, and now momma will be happy to ride with me again... it works as advertised. Houston heat and humidity are both great motivators to get this thing working. Once again, I greatly appreciate your posting this.

I used your instructions for my 04 Sierra. Would not change from Defrost to Forward Vents. After the recalibration steps, it now works great. After three years and your video is still helping. Thanks! BTW: '04 Sierra, 300k miles, except for trans, and a few minor fixes, it's all original!

[@spencermorris8841]

This also works if your vent is stuck on defrost. It finally worked on my 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 after the 3rd time and I was sure to use my stopwatch on my iPhone for correct wait periods. I could see my actuator going through the recalibration process but after waiting the 15 sec and cranking truck back up it switched back to defrost on first 2 times. The third time was a charm. I left controls on vent for the time being because I’m afraid to change it to anything else at the moment. Will update this comment if it gets stuck back to defrost. Thanks for the video!

Awesome to hear you got it working! Let's keep these trucks on the road!

[@spencermorris8841]

Yessir! Also I don’t know if it makes a difference but I flipped my 10A fuse like yours in the video on the 3rd try and it finally worked. Idk if this had anything to do with it but worth a shot if anyone is still having trouble.

This worked like a charm.... i have the manual dual climate control as well and it was the drivers side only that was giving me the issue, it was blowing a tiny bit warm even when completely set on cold. Before the reset, i removed blend motor(original GM), carefully opened it up, inspected for broken teeth, none to be found, i cleaned the contacts and tracks thoroughly with 91% isopropyl alcohol with a q-tiq. I put it back together and made sure the notch on the shaft lined up with the center mark on the case, lined up the door shaft with the actuator, bolted it in, did the reset procedure and all is well once again, not too shabby for a 17y old part(2005 gmc scsb), luckily all the other actuators are fine.

[@dtnel]

IF you have a friend that has a scanner with bidirectional capability he can go in and go into the scanner and under the GM models you can click a button and it automatically recalibrates all of the actuators at once. It's pretty cool listening to all of them cycle thru at the same time. I know the snap on Solus Edge, Snap On Modis Edge and the ones above it do that was well. There's other cheaper scanners out there that have function as well. You need to make sure the scan tool has bidirectional capabilities though as some scan tools, especially the cheap cheap ones only allow you to only scan codes at look at certain data. Remember always properly diagnose the problem instead of just swapping parts out as a lot of "parts changers" do especially dealerships and shops with inexperienced mechanics do. Understanding how these vehicles operate is a open doorway into fixing alot of your own stuff.

[@AnthonyJ350]

Thanks for sharing!

[@radroy92]

DIDN'T WORK THE FIRST TIME for my '04 Silverado. I did as instructed and the air only came out of the defrost vents along the windshield. When going through the steps the vent select dial was turned full left to the upper vents on the dash. So taking a guess I set the dial to full right to the defrost vents and ran through the rest of the instructions. THAT WORKED!! Thank you this is great now I have full AC blowing out of what ever vents I select. This was done after replacing the blend door actuator, the lowest one down by the center floor vents.

for the last 5 years, I've been dealing with this. until a couple of days ago, I was able to just turn the engine off, wait a couple of seconds, the restart and all would be mostly better, but I kept getting this really irritating bubbly sound coming from the lower part of the dash. Most of the time it would be fine (except for the noise), but every summer it has been intermittent. was afraid I'd have to replace the actuator. finally two days ago, it stuck on hot (drivers side only) so I started searching. Came across your video and ran the reset procedure (only takes 5 minutes), and the AC is blowing cold again. next couple of days will tell whether I will need to take further action or not, but I just wanted to say thanks for putting this out there, you've made, at least my life a little bit easer.

[@homefarmideas]

AnthonyJ350 no problem at all:) God bless bro!

[@raysoftruth6461]

Kudos to this video. I installed a new actuator and it was not working correct until I followed the steps in this video and then it worked perfect! Thanks!

[@AnthonyJ350]

Glad to hear it worked for you 🙂

[@Quattrovidz]

Tried and tried didn’t work, finally took apart the actuator and put back together and it worked for a bit. Decided screw this went to autozone bought a new one, installed and worked like a charm baby!!!

[@AnthonyJ350]

At least you got it fixed :)

[@TeamChirico]

Thank you! I am not mechanical... and, with all of your help, I got it to recalibrate & function. ❤

[@AnthonyJ350]

So glad the video helped you!

[@Q8Notch]

I was thinking how long it is going to take to tear thru the dash and fix the actuators! Guess what? This recalibration worked and i have cold and hot air from all the vents and all the positions. Again man thanks alot, Really appreciate it!

It worked on my 1995 Tahoe, air goes where I want it to now

[@AnthonyJ350]

Nice!

[@ctdieselnut]

Just fixed my 06 dmax. zones and temp wasn't working both sides (traditional system/not the auto system). now I have heat, good thing seeing how it's 10 degrees f right now outside. plowed snow with the heat barely working for 14hrs last night. drove it for an hr today with no heat whatsoever. wish I found this vid sooner! thank you man.

[@Kique_z71]

I replaced my blend door actuator and still didn’t work. I then found this video and it worked. Thanks a lot for this content!! 🙏

[@AnthonyJ350]

So glad to hear it worked for you!

[@xrz45]

thank you, I had to replace the actuator anyways but you do have to do the reset regardless.

[@AnthonyJ350]

Glad it was still able to help you.

[@Lazyboystreamer]

I’ve been battling this issue and replaced the actuator. Still had the problem until I found this video. Thank you so much for the video!

[@AnthonyJ350]

Awesome! Glad you were able to recalibrate the system 🙂

[@casonh3679]

Will this fix the driver side mode selector actuator?

[@AnthonyJ350]

Possibly, did you try it?

[@buckethat789]

Thank you, mechanic changed an actuator recently and he may not have needed to, was only getting hot hair on driver side, no a/c and no fan speed. Did this reset and i now have a/c on driver side and fan speed.

[@AnthonyJ350]

Glad to hear you got it working!

[@gabrielrincon5074]

It worked for my 05 chevy suburban 1500 digital controls

[@AnthonyJ350]

Nice! Thanks for sharing!

[@elohssalaer12]

worked for me. after first try, my passenger side temp control was still backwards (hot was cold, cold was hot), so i did the routine again and it totally worked. thx!

Niceeeeeeeee!!!!!!! So far so good!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!! My hero. lol no really!!

Try the procedure again. If it doesn't work the blend motor needs replacement most likely.

[@wiblesgarage2016]

I have one of these I’m working on at work, blows hot on on side cold on the other. Going to try this tomorrow morning, your video explained it well!

AnthonyJ350 It has so far

[@AnthonyJ350]

That's good to hear. I'm doing the cab mounts for the next video with the polyurethane bushings and the hydraulic mounts in the rear. I'm getting a bad creaking noise when I go slow over uneven surfaces.

[@martingray7439]

AnthonyJ350 I get that from my extended cab doors

[@AnthonyJ350]

Martin Gray A creaking noise?

[@leelambert2189]

Thanks. This worked for me on the second try. First try caused both sides to throw out hot air(was extremely pissed). Gave it another try and my AC is working beautifully now!!!!! Thank you for the video

Thanks 🙏🏽. I watched all kinds of videos on how to change the door but nobody explained that you had to reset it. Awesome video

[@AnthonyJ350]

Glad the video helped you!

[@eleventeenmachine5991]

You talk too much

[@AnthonyJ350]

Henry Rak Part of a dying breed You can always watch someone else. But maybe I talk a lot so people like you can get that FREE advice and understand fully.

[@AnthonyJ350]

Henry Rak Part of a dying breed One more question. Did the video solve your problem?

[@eleventeenmachine5991]

AnthonyJ350 no it did not. I solved the problem using a meter and traced the circuit. There was a break in the wire below the fuse box. And, my comment was because you talked more than you showed. Basically I mean you spent way more time describing the fix than showing how to do it.

[@AnthonyJ350]

Henry Rak Part of a dying breed That sounds like a "you" problem. If you read the comments you can see a lot of people are thankful for the fix. If you think you can do a better job by all means make your own video. I find people that make non constructive comments don't have videos of their own for people to criticise and tend to transfer this behaviour into the real world. If you don't like how much I talk, watch someone else.

[@jimmyers8939]

You are correct anthony; many thanks for the video. Didn't have to "rak" my brain to do it.

[@dylandubose8957]

Dude you are awesome this solved my problem! I had to replace the actual control module itself because the old one the lights were burnt out and the fan speeds weren’t working right, so I installed the new one and then the actuators weren’t operating like only half the vents were blowing and the others were barely blowing. I followed your step by step instructions and now all the vents are blowing properly. Thank you so much

[@AnthonyJ350]

Awesome! So glad to hear the video helped! Stay safe out there!

[@miguelcastellanos286]

Thanks Anthony you saved me a lot of money with this reset I was about to start replacing parts till I fixed the problem but now I don’t need too
