Stupid blend door actuator

Just fixed my blend door actuator… Anyone on here who says, “it only took me 45 minutes - first time too,” is full of crap.

Unless you have an uncut video, as proof, I call BS!!!

This is my second set and it is the most tedious - forearm destroying task I can think of.

But sadly it won’t be my last blend door circus :circus_tent:.

I assume you’re referring to the one on the driver’s side?

Mine broke at 5k, and only the defrost worked. I haven’t gotten around to fixing it yet.

Don’t tell me that. I have 2 to fix lmao

Does anyone know of any reliable brands for these that last longer than a year or two? I’ve had my 2015 FiST since 2018 and have already replaced the DS blend door once and the PS blend door twice. Both times I used Dorman brand, which I thought was an upgrade. But both last winter and this winter, they’ve broken again. It’s a fairly inexpensive fix, but it’s pretty frustrating having to replace them every year.
