I did this repair on my 2015 Camaro on 10/06/22 with 68k miles.This video is one of the best on KZfaq.If your fat ,take the seat out also use a firm pillow for your back.If your not in a hurry you can epoxy the broken door,wait 24 hours and drill a hole in the center of the end piece and put a 3 to 4 inch screw into it.Stonger than a new door.Happy repair guys and save some big money.

My man has literally only posted 1 video on this channel since 2011 & it is super helpful & has over 31k views 😎 Keep 'em coming boss, hell, @ least a follow-up video to let us know how the repair held up or something? What did the finished product look like? Please tell us you sealed up that cut out piece w/ sum hot glue or silicone or something, right? Flex tape maybe, lol!?!

Thanks for the great camera angle, took me a minute to get air duct and module out, and the cut opening you really have to tork out, but should be good to go for another 160k!

QUESTION: am in the process of doing this repair and have hit a snag. The shaft on the actuator motor won’t align with any position that I can adjust the newly installed blend door. It's just slightly off but enough where I can’t even re-bolt the piece on. I’m thinking I can reset with a 9V battery, but can’t find the pin assignment to test. (GM Part # 92215208/ACDelco Part # 15-74128) Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you for your videos!

Hmm sounds like a bit of a different problem than I had on my 2012. Perhaps the 2013 is designed differently? Or maybe there are two blend doors if it has a more advanced climate control for you and your passenger. I’m not really sure, just a thought.

@ghoststalker0202 жыл бұрын
I set the temp to about half way and same with the blend door. I’ll admit it’s probably not perfect but it works. Just try to avoid using max heat or max ac as that torques the door to its limit and it’s what usually caused it to fail in the first place.
