Man, I'm sorry to tell you that you don't need to do all this work. 3 bolts will remove the gas pedal and you can get to the actuator. The other actuator is behind the radio. Just take the radio out and you can get to it.

Bro,.....the blend door is very accessible without all that, three bolts remove gas pedal.move to the side and change it.
@craigsem Жыл бұрын
I believe the blend door actuator next to the gas pedal you refer to controls the air diverter, which switches between vent, floor, defrost.

Thanks for the video. How does the top panel with the center speaker come off? Does it pull up, or forward?

So its been awhile, but I remember it coming off with the dash. I didn't need to remove it in addition too.

Sorry you went through this. There is a special little tool that lets you undo the back screw on the actuator. Only need to remove stereo to get it it. I know just replaced it for the second time in 5 years. Took all of 45 minutes.

What is the black hose that next to the housing on drivers side for and whats it connected to? On my lincoln its loose and cant find where it should be clipped on to?
@diyguy44602 жыл бұрын
Not sure exactly what you are referring to, but hoses usually contain electrical wires. They usually have plastic connectors that clip in every few feet.

Dude, how do I tighten my shift knob? I drive a 2010 navigator?! Thanks men!

Are you talking about the leather wrapped handle? The leather pieces snap in place, but the handle itself attaches to the shifter with two tiny phillips head screws.

I have the same issue on my 2010 Navigator... it looks like a heck of a job, might end up paying a mechanic to do it. Are you able to find the other video you mentioned (without removing the console/dash) showing the easier way of replacing it?
@diyguy44604 жыл бұрын
That was a video of a guy working on a Ford. Same issue as ours, nearly identical setup. Once you remove the center console and can access under the dash, you can cut the plastic posts that hold the hvac vent in place. I wouldn't recommend doing that as you will still struggle to slide the actuator in place. It is doable if you have a few days to spare and a buddy to help with the dash. Just take extra care to realign the hvac properly. If the drain pan moves it could cause water to leak into the cab instead of out under the car

Just take the radio out and you can reach it with your hand. Takes 20 minutes
@alinlive Жыл бұрын
@@ChrisRollins The one you are referring to, is for the passenger side. The one on driver side is against the floor with screws underneath. Just like in the video above, it’s almost impossible to reach without removing the dash.

Thats too much work unnecessarily but thanks. And let me tell u theres one more actuator
