Removal Procedure
- Remove the left instrument panel (I/P) insulator. Refer to
Instrument Panel Insulator Panel Replacement - Left Side
in
Instrument Panel, Gages, and Console.
- Remove the knee bolster bracket. Refer to
Knee Bolster Replacement
in Instrument Panel, Gages and Console.
- Disconnect the electrical
connector from the left air temperature actuator.
- Remove the mounting screws from the left air temperature actuator.
- Remove the left air temperature
actuator.
Installation Procedure
- Position the left air
temperature actuator, then align the slots in the electric actuator driver
to the flats on the temperature shaft.
- Align the locating hole to the alignment pin on the HVAC module
cases.
- Slide the actuator driver on to the shaft. The actuator driver
should seat completely on to the shaft and the mounting holes should be flush
with the mounting bolts on the HVAC module case.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners
must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant
are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified.
These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage
the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when
installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
- Install the mounting screws to the left air temperature actuator.
Tighten
Tighten the screws to 1.5 N·m (13 lb in).
- Connect the electrical
connector to the left air temperature actuator.
- Install the knee bolster bracket. Refer to
