2006-2012 Toyota Yaris Climate Control Repair Recirculation Outside Air Fix

- This video shows you how I repaired a 2006 to 2012 Toyota Yaris climate control. This Yaris's climate control was not allowing you to change recirculate air to the outside air because the clip popped off on the backside. This video will show you how I accessed the climate control and fixed it. I am in no way shape or form responsible for any of your repairs or if you hurt yourself for others repairing this. This job requires absolutely no tools other than your hands. Please like share and subscribe!

Yay! Thank you so much for this video! I feel so accomplished. I kept smelling exhaust from outside. Didn't realize it was so easy!
Thank you so much! Mine was stuck on outside air and I forced it to much to turn it and the back controller popped out. I had absolutely no idea how to fix that. Not only was I able to put it back together after watching your video, but now it's working. Thank you very much for this short and precise video.

You, Sir, are a legend! Just bought a second hand 2007 Yaris here in Western Australia, everything worked, except the Recirculation control. I fixed it easily, just as you demonstrated! I had to go looking for the mechanism though, it had dropped right off, found it with the help of a torch. It just clipped back on perfectly. Thank you so much. Terry.
Happy to help! Enjoy your Yaris they are wonderful cars! Please consider liking the video and subscribing to the channel.
Done. I was so focused on repairing my Yaris I forgot to like your video. I just watched it, then rushed outside to apply it. Thanks.
Thanks to you I fixed my wife's Yairis in 5 minutes. The assembly that pops off creating the problem seems to happen in the winter when the climate control door deep in the dash stiffens up. If the control knob won't rotate don't force it! You can remove the left trim strip, slip your fingers behind the assembly, hold it in place while rotating the knob till the control door loosens up. Whew!
Thanks again.

This was awesome. I kept staring at the inside guts to figure out why my recirculation knob was not working and just turning loose. I found your video and noticed that that white piece that sits on the top of it was popped off and heading down inside the console. I would’ve never figured that out all I did was pull it back out pop it on and I am good to go thanks
Happy to help!
Glad to have found this video on how to get to those controls. My problem is the vent selector on the right will no longer turns. Feels like something is blocking its rotation.
Happy to help! Chances are the flap that controls where the air blows behind the dash is getting stuck it's pretty common and will cause the cable to stretch. It is not a super fun or easy repair to fix correctly unfortunately. I always tell people if you can get it to blow through the vent you prefer get it there and leave it there until winter hits and you can move the cable to get it to defrost. Good luck on your project! Please consider liking the video and subscribing to the channel.
Thanks man you are life saver mine also stuck on outside air since 1year and mechanic asked to much money to repair..
Thanks again

This is exactly what happened to mine. Great video, however mine seems to be a bit worse. The cable itself is really springy and stiff, so reattaching doesn't fix it...
UPDATE: I worked the mechanism back and forth and it freed itself up! So if your mechanism is stiff, keep working it and it may free itself.

Mine did the same. Thanks for the tip. It may jam up again though. I fixed it years ago and it jammed up from not being used.
This help whole lot... and it was exactly what i need to do to fix. 12 Mins, Done ! Yay
Happy to help!
Now I know how get it apart, the rest is easy, thanks! Dave WRØX

I've just got my 2008 yaris back :D.. I remember the temp knob being knocked out, so I took it all apart and pulled it back through.. I might have another look at it now because it refuses to blow cold air..stuck on hot, which is awesome with all this super HOT weather we're getting..
@@TheInteriorAutoMechanic LoL It was the white mechanism. It was just a dangling back there. Clicked it back into place and I have cold air back! :D... Next issue, rear wheel bearing ;).
@@Vanadeo Glad you were able to get it fixed! Good luck on the wheel bearing!
Hi.
Excellent video!
I just got a 2007 Yaris. It needs this repair, and I expect no problems... It also does not deliver any air thru the two dashboard vents above the radio.
Any ideas on where that trouble lies?
I'll dig in tomorrow, and hope it's easy to spot.
Thanks!
Hi there chances are your blend door selector cable may be stretched it's pretty common on these cars. In my opinion it's not worth fixing because the job is pretty involved. When you take your climate control apart you may be able to see the stretched cable and actually be able to pull it one way or the other in order to adjust where the air is coming out of. I hope this helps! Please consider liking the video and subscribing to the channel!

Hi happy to help your dimmer switch should be located to the left of your steering wheel for left hand drive cars and to the right of the steering wheel for right hand drive cars. It should look like a roller wheel such as this.

Thank you!
So, my selector knob (2005 Yaris) seemed to be binding and then when I pushed it a little it seemed to break free and now the knob is completely loose and only blows on my feet and face. Did I break something inside? Or, will what you did in this video fix this? Thank you so much for this video.
It's hard to tell without taking it apart. If I had to guess I would say something is binding inside your blend door. Once you take it apart if you can't move the little arm that changes the location as to where it is blowing by hand then your cable is binding for some reason. Good luck on your project! Please consider liking the video and subscribing to the channel I really appreciate it!
When I got to the silver piece over the radio, there was a tiny screw on either side beside the radio. Do I have to take those out to pop out the piece? It is a 2009 S sedan. Is there a place to see a schematic for this disassembly? Thanks.
Yes you will need to remove those 2 screws. I'm not sure why but Toyota changed the design on the sedans with the silver radio option.
How you connect the other end of the cable thanks
Thanks heaps

Hi! First of all thanks for the video. My issue is that, the door in the blower unit, that this cable moves, sticks sometimes when the switch is looking to the open position, and I want to move it to the close position. If I force it too much, the piece just flies off and and I have to disassemble the panel to put it back in. Do you know what is the cause of the door sticking in, and how to fix it?
Happy to help! Chances are your cable is stretched, it's a pretty common issue. You can replace them but honestly it's not a fun job. You can take the cable the pops into the climate control apart and pull the wire one way or the other to get the door to move. It's not ideal but it beats replacing the cable all together.
@@TheInteriorAutoMechanic thanks, I'll take that in consideration.
I have a problem with the Yaris air conditioner 2006. The compressor does not work for a long time. It works in one minute and then stops for half a minute. It does not give good cooling, knowing that the switch for changing the external and internal air works perfectly.
Have you tried recharging the A/C?
Thanks
Happy to help!
The knob on my Yaris that determines where the air/heat will blow will no longer switch from the various locations… like if I want it to just blow on the feet or to just blow out of the defroster vents or if I want it to blow out of the defroster vent and feet, etc. Do you have a video on how to fix that?
Unfortunately that is a much deeper dive of a video I have not covered. Chances are you will need to replace the cable that controls where the knob directs the air. The cable is a pain in the butt to replace and I just haven't made a video on it but I may in the future.
@@TheInteriorAutoMechanic Ok, thank you

Nice explanation.
Do you have detailed drawings for yaris 2012 Air conditioning systems?
No I'm sorry I do not. What are you looking for? I maybe able to help.
@@TheInteriorAutoMechanic
Looking for the in-car AC temperature sensor.
@@mohammadalshaikhhasan5091 ah I'm sorry I do not know where that is located but if I run across the diagram for it I will definitely let you know.
How do you fix a stuck knob on the top right? The one around the AC button? :)
Unfortunately that is the blend door control, I'm assuming yours is binding/won't move and to repair it properly you need to replace the cable that controls it. I'll be honest it's not a fun or easy job to do. The other option is to grab the cable and pull on the thin wire to manually control where the air is being blown, not ideal but it will get the job done.
Where does the other side of the air recirculation wire/knob attach? . It was easy enough to snap the front side back in place but with my vitz the other side of the wire/knob is also hanging lose for some strange reason
Unfortunately it's tucked back pretty far in the dash.
What’s the name of the part you replaced? Great video
Hi I'm so happy to hear that the video helped you! The part that would need to be replaced if that cable is broken is the climate control-recirculation cable. I can tell you from experience I have replaced them before and they are kind of a pain in the butt to do. Please consider liking the video and subscribing to the channel! Good luck on your project!
One question...is there a light bulb on that blower selector piece? My other seletors two have bulbs built into them.
I do not believe so I could be incorrect, but if I remember correctly there is not one on there.
@@TheInteriorAutoMechanic There actually is a bulb. I was just outside digging on the back of it. It's a Toyota part number 9001001113. It's a tiny little thing with a green translucent sleeve over it. Expensive little bugg'r! Thanks for you're response 👍🏻
@@josephtucker7397 Happy to help! Glad to know that now for future reference Thank you
How do you replace the blend door actuator
I do not know on that. I would assume based on all other cars I have worked on the easiest way to get to it is to remove that dash.
My knob that controls where the air comes out of didn’t work anymore. I have everything out I just need help with rewinding the wire? Thank you I it!!
The cable itself will need to be replaced. It's a pain in the butt to do. You should be able to pull the wire one way or the other and get that flap behind the dash to move where you want the air to come out (face, face and feet, feet, defrost) but it will be stuck on that until you pull the wire again to change it. IMO if you want it on your face during the summer I'd leave it on that then when winter comes you can change it to defrost. The cable is just a pain to replace and is not something I'd recommend replacing on your own unless you are mechanically inclined and patient.

My wind direction knob is not working. Its completely loose.. Can i do the same?
Yes you can this video should fix your issue.
My air is like it is stifuld or stopped up on A\C and heat any suggestions
Can you describe it in more detail?
Can u do a vid on inlet valves
I'm sorry can you clarify what you are talking about?
Interior Auto Mechanic manifold inlet valves on the engine
@@Anoymus985 if I can find a yaris to tear apart I will. This video was filmed on a family member's daily driver.
Interior Auto Mechanic oh i see it jst iv got an issue with my inlet valve an jst wanted some advise or a how to fix vid
Does this work with the other controls?
Yes they are all designed very similarly.
My control knob wasn’t working so I took it apart 2008 Yaris fix the controller,however the vent seems to be stuck,what do I do now !
Chances are something is either blocking the flap that controls outside air vs recirculation OR your cable could be stretched out. In either case you will need to dive in a little deeper to further diagnose the problem. If you need more help please let me know. Please consider liking the video and subscribing to the channel.
Interior Auto Mechanic ,thanks for you reply.I found the problem as soon as I took the glovebox out,it was the wiring harness hanging down and blocking the vent from opening
Hi, I got to the part of the radio panel but it didn’t give at all... are there screws I have to undo? I have the factory model 2007 Yaris sedan. Thanks!!
Hi does your radio look like the one in the video or is it silver?
It is silver. I unscrewed the 4 holding the radio and got the panel off. Thanks! When I went to re-set the white plastic, the black handle would not turn and the black tabs do not line up with the correct size spaces on the white plastic
@@whiskeygirl885 Glad you were able to figure it out! For some reason the sedan radio layout is different than the radio layout on the hatchback. If you are unable to get the cables to move manually chances are you have something binding behind the dash.
Thanks so much for the help anyway!! 🙏
@@whiskeygirl885 happy to help!
Having issues with the ac turning on at all. Maybe the switch needs to be replaced. Turns on when it wants to pretty much. Turn and turn back and forth until it finally turns on..
I would recommend checking your relays. To me that kind of sounds like a lazy relay and may just need to be replaced.
What number is the relay for the air conditioner for a 2011 Toyota Yaris
@@TheInteriorAutoMechanic do you know where I can find the AC relay on a 2011 Toyota Yaris? Mine is doing the same thing
@@anatrinidad5064 look in your underhood fuse panel they should all be labeled on the inside of the lid.
@@TheInteriorAutoMechanic I did check but don’t see any for the Air conditioner
