    Thanks for the assistance on this. I did the two on the passenger side a couple years ago but they were easier. One comment is that I found it helpful to take the cover off my steering column, gave me a better view and another place to work

    good video. couple things: on my 13, you have to take off the side plastic piece, kind of by the door frame. then a 20 torx bit for one screw. at that time you can pull off the plastic piece that is where your knees sit. in the bottom corner there is one plastic round clip to remove as well. I found it easiest to push the seat all the way back, and lay on my back while looking up. and use a short stubby phillips screwdriver. you have to install the white arm first. the top part slips onto the gear, and the bottom piece clips into the "slotted" rainbow looking piece. it sits right in the middle of the slot. I had to clip in the connector BEFORE screwing in the actuator. it would not clip in otherwise. make sure to listen to ALL THREE actuators. I had 2 bad ones.

    @femmedraven 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Having this same problem but it's both vents on the driver side of the car (the left vent above the radio and the vent left of the steering wheel). I'm trying to figure out which part I need! Someone on a forum also said to try changing the cabin air filter because theirs was gunked up and it caused the left air vents to blow warm so I'll try that first as it's the least expensive thing to do and mine hasn't been changed in quite a while.

    Not sure if you know why but its worth it to ask, but my top vents won't push air out at all. If I put it on my top vent setting I feel it on my feet mostly and maybe a small amount in the top vents. It's still cold air it just won't come out tho.

    • @TobiasHolenstein
      @TobiasHolenstein  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm not exactly sure what the problem might be, but I wonder if it might be a problem with the position selector on the dash. Like the knob that lets you select where you want the air to come out from.

    It's easier to reach if you go in through the driver door and lay down on your back across the seats (and that @#$% e-brake lever). I fumbled around until I did it that way. Laying down across the seats I was done in, like, 5 minutes.
