What is a blend door actuator? The story of A 2012 Journey with no heat...

You want the vehicle you drive to blow warm or cool air depending on the season. The blend door actuators, also called HVAC actuators, control the position of the vents that control the flow of air into your vehicle's passenger area. When the blend door actuators are not working properly, this can result in the heating or the air conditioning failing to enter the passenger area.
When the actuator is not working, you will get either hot air but no cold air, or cold air but no hot air. The actuators are small electric motors that move the vent doors, mixing hot air with cold air to achieve the temperature that you desire. Most vehicles have two blend door actuators, one on the driver side and one on the passenger side.
You will know which blend door actuator is not working by running your vehicle's heater and air conditioning. One side will respond properly, while the other side does not. For example, cool air from the air conditioner might flow properly to the driver side, while the passenger side gets hot air. In this example, the passenger side blend door actuator is not working.
