1st off Thanks for this great video! Ford Edge work is always challenging. I would recommend operating the a/c before re assembly of the cover panels because some of these actuators can be defective from the manufacturer and for that reason you might want to use the Motorcraft from a Ford Dealer. That advice is straight from the mechanics themselves.
This has happened to my 2012 Edge about 8-10 times over the last 2 years. I have been able to unplug and replug that clip and it usually resets the blend door actuator. Today it wouldn’t reset so i was able to use a pen cap to put it in the white circle (while upside down on the floor of the driver’s side) and it reset. Maybe one day I will get fed up enough to attempt to replace it. Thanks for the video! PS. If it happens to the passenger side, drop the glove box down and again, stick a pen in the white circle and give it a spin. (If I can do it in August heat while 9 months pregnant, you can too :))
Just a helpful tip. When I installed the top front screw, I used one round of masking tape around the screw head and screwdriver shaft. Doing so allowed me to find the hole without dropping the screw over and over. It worked great! After tightening the screw, I just had to barely tug on the screwdriver and the tape remained on the screwdriver.
This is a great walk through thank you! I was able to get mine replaced. I can hear the mechanisme working and can see it switching positions. However, my blower motor is no longer working 🤦♂️. Anyone know why the blower motor may have gone out during this process?
Take the covers off just like in the video. If you have dual climate, DO NOT take the radio head off, it will do nothing for you. Push the seat all the way back and raise and extend the steering wheel. There is a harness connector do not disconnect it but unclip it from the dash frame it makes a big difference
I haven’t read up too much to find out what issues others have had. I had only seen that no videos were available covering replacement of the part. Replacement fix my issues with driver side temperature blending.

Thanks! This really helped me out. Very inaccessible. Happy to practice on "pick n pulls" trim first rather than my own.
Thanks for the video it's going to help me out! 👍
Thanks for taking the time to make this video, it helped me to tackle identical repair.

I was flying blind most of the time getting the screws back in but I was able to get it done thanks
Thanks for the info and tips. I'm going to tackle mine soon.
Good luck Cancan. Hope this proves helpful.
Thanks Chris this helped a lot.
You’re welcome. Glad to hear it.
So what good is the video? If we can't watch you install the complete job?
Good call you should find another one.

Is that main or auxiliary blend temperature door actuator?
My understanding is that there are driver side and passenger side blend doors in this system to control temperature. This is the driver side.
about to embark on this journey myself, curious where you got the parts from, and any other advice you may have
I just ended up getting the parts from a local dealership, to expedite more than anything. Nothing much else to add, just have patience.
@@Pawsworth purchased the part today on amazon, though its unclear if it's for the driver or passenger side, time will tell!
stop in at any oreilly auto parts and they have the part or can get it next day for the most part
what is the white tube for
Thanks for the Video 🙂📸
Did this fix the infamous stuck blend door issue?
I haven’t read up too much to find out what issues others have had. I had only seen that no videos were available covering replacement of the part. Replacement fix my issues with driver side temperature blending.
If you take the radio head out can you get at it easier.
Need to know how to remove the passenger side actuator
Thankfully I haven’t had to figure that one out yet. Sorry.

Can't see anything absolutely zero help
I’m neither a mechanic or videographer, sorry it wasn’t of any help to you.
This was so hard I give up 2 times trying again soon 🥹😅
