You need to show the zip tie

Definitely should have shown how he did the zip tie. Makes you wonder if he really did it

This is only a band-aid. The clicking noise is caused by broken plastic gears inside one or more of the 4-5 blend door actuators mounted around the heater/blower unit. Quick hint, for my 2006 Armada the easiest one is on BOTTOM of heater/blower unit at passenger footwell, 3 ea. 5.5 MM screws, you do NOT need to remove Glove Box, Dash, Center Console, etc. Replacing It fixed my issue with passenger vents and vents on back of center console blowing cold air when the Heater was on (driver side vents blew hot). 15 mins total. There is one on top of unit on passenger side that is PITA to access; it can be done without removing dash but takes patience and right tools. I believe it controls Defrost. There is another one on drivers side footwell (not talking about the easy one down low) that is also a PITA, it controls the driver side vents. If you have upgraded sound system there will an Amplifier in the way that you have to move out of the way. You'll need to see a Chiropractor a few times after this one. Again, this video is ONLY A BAND-AID, it does not fix the reason there is a clicking noise.

Chris..... I have a similar issue with 2006 Armada. Entire car blows a/c as it should but the driver gets extremely hot air. Does that sound like your same problem? Easily fixed from below without removing the dash?

Chiropractor appointment I believe 😆 🤣

Is there a reason you didn’t show how you installed zip tie?? That’s the only reason I looked at your video!!

What button did you press that makes the door close that you put the zip tie around??

The clicking noise is the actuator/motor that opens the hot cold air blend door. You will eventually either have the door jammed in a position that lets heat and air in at the same time or you will have the door stuck in either the cold or hot position. If you hear this noise don't let anyone give you the run around. Get the motor and door replaced at the same time. Nissan charges about 1200 for this repair and will avoid doing it if they can causing you to keep coming back bcs they have to open up the dash.

That's not the blend door, it's the recirculating air door, the one that chooses wether you get fresh air from outside or recirculate the air from inside the cabin, the blend door is completely different

You skipped the most important step.

I’m an ASE certified technician and I don’t see how this is going to stop that noise, that noise is the blend door actuator located on the driver side up high and you have to replace that to stop the noise. Done a few of them works every time. What he’s doing I highly don’t recommend unless you want to change out your filter which I do recommend

Right ! and it is not necessary to remove the right part of the dashboard to remove the glove box. It has a pair of frame pins on the bottom that can easily be removed to reach the filter compartment. I have done it, it is very easy to change the air cabin filter and it is not related to the noise from the actuator ( that surely has a broken gear ), and its replacement is more complicated than it seems to DIY.

Ive been dealing with mine since i bought it 7 years ago used....its stops after about 20 seconds. 240,000 miles and the heat and air still work fine.Ive learned to accept it...mine is the upper one and my mechanic wanted nothing to do with it.

Same here . Unless my comfort of heat and air is affected I'll just let it cut off on its own . Lol

If you just select the circulate button and a vent direction button (defrost, feet, body, etc.) it stops for me. It only happens when none of the button lights are lit up, suggesting the HVAC isn’t set to anything and doesn’t seem to know what to do.

Mine only does the noise 5 min after the truck is shut off and if the switch is on the heater position but if I switch the knob to ac position and I turn off the truck it doesn't make the noise at all

Your clicking might also be coming from under the drivers side dash in the center console. There is another set of flaps and motors there as well. I might be able to get in there to show you this weekend.

@Fawkinchit

I don't think he put the zip tie around the actual vent flap, but rather put a ziptie around what it closes against, to stop it from going all the way. How it works is that it stops it from jumping off the track, cause it can no long go far enough to do so due to the zip tie taking about 1/8 of an inch of that space.

As inaccurate as it gets! Worked at Nissan dealership and usually is the blend door actuator. Or one of the 5 actuators found on these vehicles getting weak. I can’t believe this video still up ! Please dnt make videos that are misleading 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

I have this same issue and its driving me nuts!

I do like you video, however, I wanted to actually see it making the noise when you had all the filters removed. in other words have a before and after sound and no sound video but great video nonthe less.

YIKES lol

How’s he not gonna show how he did the zip tie

@@ArrowheadGarage 2007 Nissan Armada When I bought it ..used... the previous owner had customized and modified some things. Like there is a lever switch and a button and also a blinking light under the dash to the left of the steering wheel. Whenever I disconnect the battery and reconnect the battery, this whatever it is just starts clicking with blinkers and hazard lights and the digital stuff in the roof all going haywire blinking. someone thinks the previous owner might have added some anti-theft stuff. 2 tow totaling $350 , a diagnostic $120 , alternator $290, and the junker is still clicking away ...returned the alternator after the diagnostic. running now but the clicking icomes on and goes off when it wants. corner mechanic shop says ... take it to the dealer.

A summer project.

Wasted 7mn for nothing

So i came here because i heard a clicking on the dashboard but when i started watching the video i remembered that i had the aux on the radio on. 🥲 that was it😅
