HVAC Blend Motor Actuator Recalibration Procedure for GM Trucks & SUVS | AnthonyJ350
Рет қаралды 1,332,671
Күн бұрынSome GM trucks in the early 2000's may have an issue where the temperature may get stuck blowing hot air on the driver's side and cold air on the passenger side. If you climate controls are not working properly, the culprit tends to be the HVAC blend motor/ actuator door.
Before purchasing anything or attempting to make a repair, try doing the reset procedure in this video.

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. 👍💯😁

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Did you do the reset procedure after you installed the new actuator?
@memorexs 6 жыл бұрын
This also worked for me. Turn on your A/C to the highest blower setting and let it run 5 minutes, then dial up the heat leaving the blower in highest position for five minutes. this should resent your actuator to correctly blow hot or cold.

Hey man, I was pretty bummed my driver side A/C was actually pouring out desert heat and we have to take my truck on a 5 hour trip in a few days. Thinking I was going to be stuck with this new problem of mine, I figured I’d search for answers so I knew what I’d be up against. The total of 3-4 min this took, problem solved. I have a new blend door actuator from the reverse problem this past winter, so I never calibrated it to begin with probably. Thanks much guy, you saved me from having a very warm and angry drive haha
