7.2.	Use a twisting motion to release the defogger outlet duct - lower from the windshield defroster duct, then from the defogger outlet duct - upper.




8. Remove the inside air temperature sensor aspirator duct.

8.1.	Depress the duct retaining tab and remove the duct from the ignition switch housing bracket.

8.2.	Use a twisting motion to release the duct from the duct muffler.




9. Remove the inside air temperature sensor aspirator duct muffler.

Use a twisting motion to release the duct muffler.




10. Disconnect the electrical connector from the LH temperature valve electric actuator.



11. Remove the two screws retaining the LH temperature valve electric actuator.
12. Remove the electric actuator.

1. Position the LH temperature valve electric actuator, then align the slots in the electric actuator driver to the flats on the LH temperature valve shaft.
2. Slide the electric actuator driver onto the shaft, while aligning the actuator locating hole to the forward alignment pin on the HVAC module case.

The actuator driver should completely seat onto the temperature valve shaft and be the actuator mounting holes should be flush with the mounting bosses 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.
