Removal Procedure
The electric actuator (temperature) is located on the top right hand
side of the heater/vent module.
- Remove the instrument panel carrier. Refer to
Instrument Panel Carrier Replacement
in Instrument Panel, Gauges,
and Console.
- Disconnect the electrical
connector.
- Remove the electric actuator
retaining screws.
- Remove the electric actuator from the heater/vent module.
Installation Procedure
- Install the electric actuator
to the heater/vent module. Ensure that the actuator is seated on the locating
tab.
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 electric
actuator retaining screws.
Tighten
Tighten to 1.9 N·m (17 lb ft).
- Connect the electrical
connector.
- Install the instrument panel carrier. Refer to
Instrument Panel Carrier Replacement
in Instrument Panel, Gauges,
and Console.
- Perform the following procedure in order to Initialize the electric
actuator on vehicles equipped with automatic climate control (C68).
