Great Job 👍

thanks for the video mate!

Best one I've seen on this. Wish I had seen it a long time ago!

Here's a story for you. I had the same clicking issue. It was the lower actuater. The car had been hit with a tornado and the glass was smashed along with the dash. Some of the glass and plastic had fallen into the air system and I believe that's what busted the actuater. I replaced it but the air was coming out if the defroster vent. I tried changing it from the climate control and no matter what I did, the air kept coming out of the defroster. All of the sudden, everything shut down. No fan, no rear defroster no nothing! Checked fuses, relays, and I even replaced the fan resistor to no avail. I finally decided to replace the climate control and viola! The ac started working and it was coming out of the correct vent! I believe the year the car spent under a tarp exposed that climate control to water because the radio also quit and I believe water had found its way into the radio and blew out the internal amps on the radio. When I got the car, the left bank worked but the right bank was dead. I had a rainstorm that came in, and even though I had it under a canvass tarp, water was able to get into the car. I had to vacuum quite a bit of water out of the floor after that rain but the speakers no longer worked in it. I did quite a bit if work on the car. You can check out my youtube channel to see what I had to do. It's pretty interesting to see the transformation. It's a 2007 mustang gt tornado project. I drive it daily even though I also own a 99 mustang cobra svt! I really like mustangs. They are great cars!

Thank you for the video. You need to be rubberband man to do this. If your over 50 go to an AC mechanic. I was able to do it... with the help of God, a few prayers, and a # 7 #8 socket. Most of the time I was blind difficult to tell you positioned it correctly. Only tip is to set the device then set one screw. This was one royal pain in the butt install for a somewhat old guy and I would never do it again.

Is there a better way to explain how to set the arm?

So there’s 3 of them and you pointed out 2 of them. Do you know where is the third one ? & also do you know which one is which ? My whole ac went out and I assume this the problem because I was getting those noises before it completely stopped working

question so if it stuck on defrost which one you think it could be???

So what if my front vents don't turn on only sometimes? And also my heater doesn't blow warm only when it wants but it only blows cold

Would this cause the ac to only run on hot?

If I disconnect the top actuator and it still makes the nlise is ur the culprit or no?

I have an 06 GT and the air will only blow out of the main vents regardless what the switch is on. It will blow harder on max ac but it will not go on defrost or floorboard. Does anyone have any idea what this could be? Maybe the same thing

That was fairly easy. Did one on a Ford Explorer and had to take the whole dashboard off...not a great experience!

Are those the only 2 actuators or are there more on the driver side? I saw another vidoe where they took one out from the driver side

@GregPettus

They are all over for the vents. So most likely there is some on the driver side

I'm having trouble getting the arm lined up. The white arm on the actuator need to be in the slot or the very end hole of the black vent arm?

@GregPettus

Жыл бұрын

I actually dont remember its been a while i do feel it should fit into the hole.

I had the clicking issue but it still worked for defrost and floor. But all sudden the blower stopped so I took out my blower motor and tested it and it works. But I changed the blower resistor still just incase. And it still don't want to work. It will turn like a little and stop and repeats. But if I hook it to a battery it goes full speed no problems. I checked all fuses to make sure none was bad. It's starting to agrivate me now because I can't figure out why it won't work when I put it back in the car but will when I hook it to a battery to test it.
