My impala just started making this noise went to get it checked out and they wanted $365 to fix it seem this video and it won’t cost me no more than 30 bucks thanks 🙏 these mechanics are insane
Glad I could help 😃 don’t forget to like and subscribe 😊
Yea same here. They told me $350 to fix....ummm nope, that's stripper money....I don't got that..lol
Jesus fuck that’s crazy
⅔
They are insane
Chevy should have had a recall for THIS! Literally, every Impala 06-13 does this!
Recalls are only for safety reasons.
Chevy is crap
And 2014. I have a 2014 with this problem
My 15 does this
I've replaced my 2011 ones twice since March...Monday will be replacement 3 smh
Thank you for the detailed step by step process. I’ve taken back my impala to Carmax each time ($50) per visit and I’m done with that. I’m hands off when it comes to engine maintenance but you definitely taught me something here! Thank you so much.
You just saved me an arm and a leg! This video was so easy to follow, and I loved how you explained the process so thoroughly! Consider me a fan of this channel
Glad I could help! Also check my TH-cam merchandise, I have really cool hoodies
My neighbor just brought me her car that is doing this very thing. I try and do my own repairs as much as possible on my own vehicles. I think I can help them out with your video. You explained it very well. Appreciate it.
Amazing video!! Me and my 14 yr old son fixed it within 20 minutes! Thanks sooo much. No more noise!! ☺

Buy the part from this link and save yourself the headache amzn.to/3WGVwjN
they are located in the States and have super quick shipping
Great video I'm about to fix this after work thank you so much!
Will the conditioning lock up if I were to just leave the passenger side plugged in yet the driver side unplugged and taken out like will it lock up on me the conditioning?
nothing will lock up, you can unplug it and leave it in the desired location. only issue is you won't be able to change the settings
@garage boys where is the link to order the part for the recycle
Where is the description link
I have replaced several of these on a 2008 Impala. I think the problem is due to a poor design issue as I live in a extremely hot southwest climate and the heat is the cause of the repeated failure. The video is excellant both visual and audio. Many thanks to the creator. Taking your Impala to the dealer is very expensive.
that shit on the right side is so pissing me off bc that big thick piece of wires get on the way and can’t put my soccet to get out the screw
Is there any way to prevent it from melting from heat?
Clearest video out there. Even shown how to remove glove box. Nice bright lights unlike the rest who figured to do it in the dark. Also. Thanks for the clear sound.
Thanks so much!!!! The shop I took this car to wanted $1,000 in labor to fix this. I owe you lunch LOL, thanks for the savings.
Glad I was able to help! If you can help me back by liking and subscribing and then we will be even with the lunch LOL
Wow I only paid $248
You owe him a rent payment saving you 950 bucks
@@robojimbo7039 my car was fixed way before I saw this video lol. I just watch it bc it was in my watch later videos lol
Shops will often remove the entire dash, and charge you for it, when all you need is glove box access.
Glad I found this video, the ticking has been driving me insane lol. And I’ve noticed every summer it acts up maybe cause the high temps it doesn’t work properly.
Thank you! Just fixed mine on my 2011 Impala. Followed your instructions and they got me there perfectly. The only thing I did differently was I took the glove box off completely... and I STILL had a really hard time fitting my hands and the socket wrench in there. All set now, though. Now for some victory gin.
Omg so glad I found this mine just started doing this all the time and it drives me crazy..😫😂
Supa annoying noise! Hope you fix it soon
I have never really worked on a car, aside from changing the oil & oil filter, & I was able to replace these actuators fine with this tutorial. Thank you so much for a clear instructional vid. It was a bit difficult working around the wiring harness (I have a 2011 Impala) & I had to use a flex head ratchet to get the bolts on the right actuator. Fantastic job on the vid. Amazing help. Thanks.

I simply love You Tube for this purpose. Straight to the point knowledge and advice.
Great video. Ordered thru Amazon and had it fixed in 15 min. Just for fun I asked my Dealership how much to fix. Their answer was $350 to $400. Cost me $40 part and had to buy a socket set with a 7/32. 3 hardware stores and an auto parts place never heard of 5.5mm socket.
good shit, boutta do this tomorrow shit drives me nuts lmao
I have a 2013 Impala and it just started doing it. Bought the part and now that I am ready to replace it, the stupid thing won't do it anymore XD Thanks for showing how to pull off the glovebox completely. Yours is probably the only one that does.
I have a Chevy impala 2014 and my car was doing it went to the shop paid over 300 dollars now it's making the same noise again
@@theresawenzy9543 The screw probably stripped the plastic panel it attaches to and it no longer secures the actuator. If the actuator is not tightly secured, it will do it again. There is no fix for this. Either just deal with it, or unplug the actuator. It happened to me and I just gave up. The only fix is to replace the entire assembly and I'm sure that is thousands of dollars.
There’s a couple of actuators, probably now another went bad
@@GarageBoys In my case, I replaced the three actuators. The driver side was a pain to replace and now it did it again. I fiddled around with it and noticed that when I push it hard against the panel that screws into, it will stop doing it and opens/closes the vent normally. As soon as I release it, it starts doing it again. I found out (as I mentioned) that one of the screws is stripped and won't secure the actuator properly. Now it might've been my fault, but I'm sure I was careful not to tighten it too much. Either way, I would have to tighten the thing pretty well to secure it properly. I gave up. Left it in cold and unplugged it. When winter comes, I'll plug it back in, set it to warm and unplug it again. Thanks for the help though.
@@TheHuskyGT Could you get try a different screw with slightly courser threads and/larger diameter?
Omg. Thank you for this video. This 60 year old woman with ra just fixed her own car. I would have had my husband do it but he has huge hands and I didn't think he could get his hand in there. Thank you soo for this video
Glad I was able to help! Please do t forget to like and subscribe 😊
Thanks so much! This was extremely helpful! The estimate to fix was $1500. From this video I just did it myself and it only took 10 minutes and $17 for the part!
I have a 09 Chevy Impala, this noise is driving me BANANAS!!!!! It had gone off for months, now it's doing it again, and it's doing it from a different area (both of them). Thanks for this video!!!
🤯 ahhh!
Crank up that radio lol that's what I'd do!
@@brittany9414 😂 I used to do that!! Such an easy fix though. Buy part(s) in description link, super cheap then watch his video. I swear it's hella easy.
This video was awesome and helped me fix both of my ac articulators on my 2012 Chevy Impala . They are still a mega pain in the ass to change out but if I can do it, anyone can. Removing the left side pin for the glove compartment was a pain because of the tight space but I got it out by using a bent bobby pin and pushing inward with a screw driver to get the removal started until I yanked it out completely with a pliers. Just need a 1/4 ratchet set with 7/32 and an extension for the articulators. The one closet to the driver is easy but the one on the passengers side will have you cussing and getting creative with the ratchet/ extension just to loosen the screws. You will have to move a large coil of wires by popping/cutting off the plastic mounting just to get to the passenger side articulator. I only had two screws on both articulators. The link for parts I needed on amazon was correct and every thing is working as it should. Thank you for this video.
yes bro i’m fuckn stuck im and tryna fix up my mom 2008 impala and the one next to the door is so fucking pissing me off my beck hurts so much for turn my head it’s been like 2 days and in total of 30 min tryna get it out and i can’t how did you get it out
now ik why they charge 1k for that shit because the damn left side so hard
@@SIMI_CLO just have to keep working at it. My hand and neck was cramping the whole time. I could barely even move the rachet one little click to try for another turn to loosen it. You'll have to get creative with how you hold the ratchet and turn it because there is literally no space in there to see what you're doing. I about gave up but somehow i did it
Yeah I’ve decided to just get rid of this piece of junk
Thanks so much man. Just got an 09 and have taken it to the shop a couple times. Great to know that this is an affordable and easy fix for the automechanically simple like myself
I am having the exact same issue with my 2008 Impala, my daughter & I watched your video & it was very thorough, so we are going to try & fix it ourselves, (2 females 😲) we'll let ya kno the outcome!
How did it go replacing the Actuators? On the Impala?
That just started in my 06...thank you so much. Thought I done something. Thanks for sharing.
You are the MAN! I was quoted $1000. from one mechanic and up to $1500. from another. Took me 2 hours of labor and found a 2 pack of actuators for $31. On Amazon!!
Following you to the end of the earth bro! Great job!
Were there specific types or are all actuators the same? Thanks a bunch!
This video helped me out a bunch. Both of my actuators went bad at the same time. (2011 Impala) All quiet now! I even fixed my glove box door in the process that's been not opening correctly. Cheers!
Congratulations
This is probably one of the best how-to videos I have ever watched! I am subscribing for that!
5:50 this was extremely time consuming for me to get these out. I had to take the bottom black piece off with the plastic clips so I could reach underneath and get it much easier cuz of this daggone thick black electrical taped surrounded wire lol
Glad I was able to help, thank for the support!
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! Saved me a ton on labor costs after being laid off from covid

Thank you so much for this. Taking mine apart this weekend to fix! You are an angel!
Awesome, glad I was able to help! Let us know how it goes
@@GarageBoys I was able to change out the one on the left. I have my 10 years old trying to get his hand into the tight space for the right. We are having a tough time. If I leave the one knocking unplugged how much will that affect the performance? I turned the car on and I see the vent still turns. Will it just be more wear and tear and I may have to do it again in a few years?
If you leave it unplugged then you can’t switch that option. You are stuck in that one setting you have, since the screws are on plastic a good trick is to use the socket and turn it with your hand. Try it
Dude, my GF was told by the dealer it was a $300 fix, thanx so much. We will use your link. Have a good one Bro.
Thx, if you can also like and subscribe 😊
U saved me 1200 they wanted to charge me i used ur link and bought the parts. So when they come ill watch ur video and do it myself thanks soooo much.. Life saver!!!
I have had this going on in my 2005 impala and it was driving me crazy, I am so glad I finally know what it is
OMGoodness! Everything worked exactly as you said! I also used your link to Amazon and the parts were exactly what I needed. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy in South Carolina!!!!!!!!!
Glad I was able to help! 😊
Mission of dumb enough to pay those stupid buffoons $1000 to fix this
This helped my Impala started doing this yesterday!!! Thank you!!!
Watched your video. Ordered 2 of the actuators. Showed your video to my husband. Then showed your video to my son. I've just received the parts from your suggested link (Amazon). The actuators were delivered sooner than expected! Nice! Also, I (wife) will be the one doing most of the installation as my husband is a big guy and has some mobility problems. Anyways - will let you know the results as soon as the weather warms up a little! High Hopes In South Carolina :-)
Super Easy!
Thank you for this video saved me a ton of money, kinda a pain for my big ass to get into that small of a space but I appreciate it
Glad I was able to save you money 😊
Thank you very much for the video. I am about to embark on replacing both! I really appreciate the video it is well spoke, simple, and easy to follow. I really appreciate you including the bolt/socket sizes. Thank you.
Glad I was able to help, let us know how it goes! 😊
Thank you Sir!! That knockin sound was driving me insane 15 min later gone!!! Your the real mvp!!
Common issue with impalas. I’ve replaced my passenger temp actuator and now replacing the mode door actuator. I have a 2012 Chevy impala LTZ. As well as the high and low beam plugs burn out. They remade them with better plastic. They go bad on most GMs. It’s important to note that you need to use AC delco parts. I tried doorman and it broke faster then it took me to replace it. No other brands on Amazon last like the original AC delco parts. Save yourself the time. Order the better brand from the start. This is based on my experience and my opinion. I am a daughter of a ASE certified mechanic as well as electrical engineer. Being female my dad made it a point to teach me how to repair my own vehicle. Among other things.
Such a pain and I so love my 08 impala that I cannot part with, thanks for the fix . One day I will. Gracious. I subscribed and I’m buying parts
Thx for the support!
Okay. I've replaced it. Took me about 20 minutes. Then the driver's side one broke... Now that is a whole different deal. I lost my shit doing that one... But after about an hour it is done. Whatever you do, don't take it to the dealership. They wanted $500+ for a "4 1/2 hour labor." Got the part for $30 at Autozone and a $20 extra-small ratchet (very helpful!)
Hey Friend. When you said the one on the drivers side, did you mean the one on the left of the glove box or one on the other side of the heater/AC control panel? Thanx and take care.
@@stevew6138 Yeah. The driver side one is the one left to the climate control panel. You access it by removing all the panels from under the steering wheel. It's a real pain, but not impossible. The two that are behind the glovebox are the easy ones.
@@TheHuskyGTJust making sure before I dive in, thanx Bro.
Thanks, it was perfectly explained. Great job thanks for posting this!

He’s right! You may have to lay across the two front seats for leverage, but you can unscrew them with your hand!
Parts ordered. Dealt with this sound for years, but now the effect of this being broken has finally come to the end. I cannot get air to go to the feet. Very happy to find this video so I can save a ton of money doing this myself.
Got this car from my dad, the noise is always annoying. Glad there's an easy solution.

Wow! I have an appointment tomorrow to test drive a 2013 LTZ. Now I know what to expect if I buy it.
Did you buy it?
Unfortunately I didn't. They wouldn't fix the noise for me.
good call.
Thank you, I 2007 Impala and the car has that problem and your video helped.
I can feel exactly where its coming from.
Love this video perfect shows me exactly what I need to do you need to make more videos dude you're good!
Thanks! Glad I was of service 😃
Thank you so much for the helpful video :) Can't believe stuff like this is free to watch!
I got lucky and had the clicking problem with the actuator on the left side of the passenger glove compartment, which is the easiest to remove and replace. It really is as easy as removing a couple screws and a connector. Btw I have a 2013 Imapla so yes, this will work on the 2013 model too. I only installed the replacement a few days ago so I can't speak to its durability but it is 100% compatible and works perfectly so far. The amazon reviews seem to say its durable enough. Even if it goes out in a couple years, its so cheap and such an easy fix you might as well do it again.

Oh wow, so happy I found this video. I am an absolute newly at fixing related issues but I actually feel like I can do this now. Thank you! Just a quick question, what are the tools and sizes needed to complete this job? I am trying to figure out what I need to purchase in addition to the part. Any suggestions are welcomed.
mine was 6mm and 5.5 mill magnets help
Thanks Bro! Removing the glove box made it so much easier!
How much did the part cost .?
The midget with the machine gun in the glove compartment 😂
I just replaced one of these on my daughter's impala, same position as the two as you showed. Very install and removal. Still clicking after though. I've saw in other videos you need to recalibrate after and I still can't get the clicking to go away.
Where did you buy it?
Ty for sharing my car has this same issue
Video is very clear, you did a great job. Thanks for your help.
Very informative thank you I did it myself
Thank you! Oh my 🙄 an annoying sound mine started doing this for about a month. TY 🙏🏻
Great video, and helpful. Some words that might be useful for your next are "hinge pin" and "spindle" instead of sticks.
I though that TikTok was lying… it does sound like that 😂😂😂
LOVE the video. I’m gonna go ahead and replace all four tho
Awesome, let us know how it go?
Lol “midget with a machine gun in the glove compartment syndrome “ oh my! That cracked me up!! 😂
Thanks for sharing this great video! Love the detail and great instructions!

What’s the stick that turns the air door thing called bc mine won’t turn it and it just knocks idk what’s wrong with it
Blend door actuator...I've replaced 2. Glove box and driver side actuator. Have fun on the driver side.
My Monte Carlo is doing this too. My Equinox also had an issue with an actuator as well. I'm hoping it's as easy on the MC as it was on the vid. Thank you!
Thank you!! All We are same boat .

Great Value video bro...thanks so much !
Glad I was able to help!
Beautiful, I have that problem, thank you so much👍
I have replaced 2 of the 3 I know of on my 2010 Impala. The far right one and the one over the gas pedal. And yes, the one over the gas pedal is a S.O.B. to replace!
I have this same issue on my '09 Impala behind the glove box. I may still try this myself, but when I called my local mechanics, the secretary said her computer is showing that I need to get an AC recharge after changing this part. That is NOT true for the one behind the glove box, same part you changed, correct?
That’s not true for any of the vent actuators on any car! It has nothing to do with your A/C vents
Best video 👍 accurate & reliable . That actuator killed my battery 2 times . thank u , very helpful video 🎥 . no need to over pay 💵 $300-400 .
Glad I was able to help!
you are the MAN!!!

Yes!!! Thank you!!!
I have a 2013 that just started doing this. Can you just uplug the part till it can be fixed to stop the clicking?
Will this problem also drain your battery?
Thank you for the great information you just saved me a lot of $$$$.
Thanks for the video. You did a great job explaining and showing us how to fix this stupid problem. It's been driving me batty. Ditto the complaints about the mechanics' charges. Chevy needs to fire the idiot that designed this POS!
What a hand. My girlfriend went to three different mechanics and they couldn't figure it out.
Great video!
Very informative! Thanks alot!
Thanks bro, i hope you have lots of success!
What is the name of the piece?
Mine was clicking and then all of a sudden my a/c wont blow anymore. Would the actuators be the reason?
Thanks, this was a huge help, Cheers!
Amazing. This is exactly what’s happening on my husband’s 2015. It’s strange that it was happening when the car was OFF.
It can even lead to a drained battery 😧
oh great. ok i guess i will have to attempt this. just dont have any mechanic tools on hand. this started after the shop put in a new battery. i cannot win with this ‘15 LTZ
