TIP: before you even go as far as buying a new actuator or tearing out all the stuff in the dash to get to the old one, try simply tapping on the old actuator with a screwdriver or wrench while switching modes. If you can get any amount of movement at all, hit the actuator track and the white pins with some silicone spray. That's what i did in my wife's 2009 CR-V with 193k and the actuator sprung back to life. I saw the actuator move about 1/4" after a half dozen taps with my rachet, so i kept at it and it kept moving more and more until it broke free. I lubed it up in all positions (all modes). Works like new now. Watch the drippage though. Put down plastic and towels over the passenger floor mat until all the silicon spray has solidified. FYI, you can do this simply by dropping the bottom panel and removing the glove box. That's it, no other parts need to come out.
Our mode selector stopped responding two days before a road trip, was able to revive it (at least long enough to get through the trip) before scrambling for a replacement part, thanks for the tip!
@@thefantasticpendejo6182 so when I power on, my replacement motor rotates once and stops, the mode buttons do nothing. However the buttons for other motors work ( temp, recirc, etc). Thoughts?
I talked to my friend who is a Honda Certified Mechanic. He says a few factors may be at play here. 1. Is it single or dual climate? 2. Is it the right module for the vehicle? 3. We're all the old parts transferred to the new part? (It's a small piece on the actuator that must be transferred) Keep me posted
So I used your video and replaced my actuator BUT is is supposed to rate clockwise or counter clockwise? It appears to get jammed because it turns counter clockwise and then the white arms can't move... help. (2011 CVR looks EXACTLY like the one in the video)
This is a tuff call... we replaced the actuator because she had NO mode position. This solved her problem. Finding out where it's binding is going to take patience. Why is it binding??? Let me talk to my Honda tech. Give me a couple of days... please
Okay.. exact words..... When they put theses actuators together they sometimes never test... hense they won't line up... hope this helps 1. Remove the actuator 2. Cycle the actuator to reset the actuator while it's out. 3. While actuator is OUT cyle the blend to the pre-set mode your in... example if it's on vent make sure you move the door by hand to the vent position. 4. The mode door will be reset to the position you selected. By having the door manually in the position that you selected on the dash, they'll be in the exact same position. 5. Remount the actuator... test again...
I am going to make another video this weekend.... sorry it's taken so long 😪. You have a GREAT point... I did clock mine. I will discuss and show this on Friday when I get the CR-V back.
Details, details, details. Yet, the only details I learned is you bought some tools. You told us where and how much the tools cost. You demonstrated using the tool. Yea, you bought some tools! Title of video should have been TOOLS I bought and which screws and bolts it works on! Not one shown detail on ACTUALLY removing or replacing the actuator other than showing where some screws and bolts were. No details on where to buy the (title of video) ACTUATOR or how much it cost. Video was pretty much useless as to buying the actuator, accessing, removing and replacing the actuator. You talked the talk but did not walk the walk...

Dude you rock I'm going to share this info with everyone.

Where is the actuator? Sorry new to car stuff lol
@@spencerpierce5257 it's up in the dash to the left of the glove box. You need to remove the glove box and lower cover to access it
Thanks couldn't find no1 else to show this process 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Great video, the camerawork,narration and tips were spot on. Thanks for taking the time to help me and others.
Thank you. I know I can be a bit much at times. I really do enjoy helping others.
Very specific post but very helpful to my issue. Thanks!
Glad it helped.

Need details..give me year make and model so I'm on the same page also single climate or dual climate???

You speak plain English and I appreciate it. Thanks for the instructions.
You've got charisma. I'm doing this job but you made it entertaining. Lol
