Before working on the dual zone passenger side air door actuator, remove the
Battery Cable on the negative side and let the system wait for two minutes for the air bag capacitor to drain. First, remove the instrument panel from the car. Following that, unlink the blend door lever from the blend door actuator output shaft as well as from the blend door linkage. Remove the top of the HVAC housing by taking out the two screws binding the assembly to the Blend door actuator and bracket. Then, take out the assembly, releasing the wire harness connector from the actuator. Attach the actuator and bracket onto the HVAC housing and fix them using screws that are tightened to 2.2 N.m (20 in.lbs.). Match the guide pin at the base of the blend door actuator with the guides on the blend door linkage as you connect the wire harness to the connector. Then, fix the blend door lever on the output shaft of the actuator and on the blend door linkage, place the instrument panel again and join the negative battery cable.
