- Remove the recirculation housing (2) from the HVAC module
assembly.
- Remove the recirculation
door (1) from the recirculation housing (2).
Installation Procedure
- Install the recirculation
door.
- Align the retaining tabs and install the recirculation housing (2)

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 recirculation housing screws.
Tighten
Tighten the screws to 1.5 N·m (13 lb in).
- Connect the recirculation actuator plunger rod to the recirculation
actuator lever.
- Position the recirculation
actuator on to the mounting slides of the HVAC module assembly.
- Ensure that the lock tab locks the recirculation actuator in place.
Important: Check for any binding at the recirculation actuator lever.
