I'm a 55yr old woman who loves to wrench on my Jeep.. I have a 2000 TJ and I had the same problem, It took me 15mins to fix it, thanks to your video!! Thank you so much!!
Glad it helped
Thanks for watching
Thanks for this friend! I looked all over YT before I finally found this.
I just did this today and now I have hot heater. Thanks my friend.
I stuck the white air door screw in the hole and turned it to hot manually!
I now have heat until the part arrives!
A million thank you's!
Glad I could help
Thanks for Watching
My TJ’s heat started blowing cold suddenly, so I figured it was something electrical, as opposed to heater core clogs, etc. I reseated the electrical plug/connector for that gadget tonight and all is well now. Thanks for sharing!
My daughter's jeep quit blowing heat suddenly one day. I am going to check this out. Thanks!
Thank you so much for for making this video!!! You have no idea how much you saved me. I'm homeless living in my Jeep Wrangler trying to work a double save money I just don't make enough to really save. Most of my money usually goes to gas cause I have to run the Jeep all night to stay warm.. it was my lifeline.. so now it started blowing cold air. And if I don't fix it I'm screwed cause it gets down to below 0° sometimes. Anyway thank you for making this.
Thank you for this video. It saved me at least three hours (disassembling the dash) to replace a heater core that didn't need to be replaced. Only to find out that it was this part.
You’re welcome
Worked for me! Thanks. Just FYI before you replace this part. Look to see if it moves prior to taking it off or buying a new one. Saves time and effort.
Great video! Thank you. I haven't tried the fix yet, but my problem is just like yours and I'm confident that this will be the solution.
This is exactly what was wrong with mine also. Thank you!
Glad it helped
Good job on that instructional video. 👍
Thank you! That was an excellent video!
Thank you I've been trying to figure this out for months. Now my wife and daughter don't have to freeze to death haha
Awesome Video Dan exactly what I needed.
You are lucky with the placement of the actuator. Try it on a mid 2000's Taurus or Sable. Remove the glove box, remove part of the console etc. etc. Fun job. Thanks for all your videos..............Jay
Thanks man ! Huge help for my 97 tj
Great video, thanks for posting!!!
Great video! You saved me a big headache! I'm off to O'Reilly's!
Thanks for the detail!
I think this exactly what I need to do!! 2001 Jeep Cherokee sport here, same issues as you.
Thanks man I’ve got to replace mine in the morning
Thanks for the pointers!
Thank you so much! Mine was stuck on hot.
thank you for the video!!
YOU R THE MAN a Jeep owner LOL.. Good fix job too. I have a 1997 XJ Cherokee Sport HD 4.0 4 speed auto. I love my Jeep! Right now I have to charge my AC once a year and my defrosters don't work, but other than that everything else works. I only have 86,000 miles on it and it's cheery. Sits up on Reading Springs and double leafs in the back because I plow and tow with it, can pull 5, 800 easily as it's geared lower then the standard duty, has oil coolers on the tranny and motor. I have to get on youtube to see how to fix the defrost, but I think in my case it's not wired correctly. My center dash looks just like yours, same radio and all. Any one have cassettes , LOL?
Great video!!! Thank you.
Nice Pete!
I have. Same problem on my TJ 97 , thanks 🙏.
This video was exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for the information!
Glad it helped
Thanks for watching
Great Vid. Thanks so much.
I'll check mine to see if that is my problem. If not I'll just flush my heater core.
Thank you so much.
Thank you!
Great video, Before you do all that you can feel if its working before you replace it. easy change out but It seems like the TJs can get clogged in the heater core. I changed mine like you did but still no hot air only warm.
Excelente video. Thank you
Thank you.This seems to be a common problem with these.
It seems that I have the same issue but I can see the actuator turning its blows hard cold air but barely feel warm air and it’s low even when it’s set to blow high. But this video was a good information tool. Any other ideas on my problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a Blessed Day.
I think this is my issue? I'm gonna check after work. Either way, thanks for this video. Perfect.
Thank you
Hey great video .how about if it is not blowing air also? Any ideas
I don't have heat in my 1999 TJ, blower works, no heat and no AC. Figured I'd tackle the no heat issue since it's fall. Less concerned with the AC.
TY so much!!!!
Glad it helped
Thanks for watching
If my acuator is moving should I assume it's working properly? I'm getting barely luke warm heat in my 2001. I'll try the flush heater core next....
OMG, i need a drink after watching..... informative video though bro
I have same problem on my yj of 1991. Heat doesn't work + no ac. What would be the problem. The blowers works
Have a 99 the heater actuator works open and close s all the way but still no hot air warm sometimes but not hot especially if cold out side
The library has a special computer for shop manuals. The same as the dealers use.
What happens if the wires are cut that control the control slide to be either hot or cold? How do you fix it?
I have the opposite way.
I have 2012 Jeep grand Cherokee blowing hot air and only hit air nothing else, even though if you lower the temperature down to 14 degrees still blowing a hot air.
Any help please much appreciated.
How much was the part? An after you installed the part once you turned from cold to hot did it make a sound you were able to hear when it switched?
i have a 2008 4dr jeep wrangler sahara. i have had no heat on driver side for a cpl yrs. it is slowly happening on passenger side. i was first told a door that allows heat in & out had melted and that it was common with jeeps and it would cost too much to fix.
it was -40degrees in canada today - i desperately need heat. do you think it could be fixed also?
How do i change the orientation of the new one if its in the middle
Just here to comment again.. I tried using the link you provided but it looks like this part is no longer being sold and I was suggested to use this one instead: part # DA1018 at O-Reilly's. It's "Murray climate control 4 terminator air door actuator." It looks the exact same. $45.99
This saves me a ton of time!!!! Thank you!!! Do you have a patreon or paypal where I could throw you a couple bucks?
I'm glad it helped
Thanks for Watching
My blower doesn’t work & my fans are actually falling apart too 😫 i can get some heat but it’s really low and happens mainly when i am driving so the minimal heat is coming from the engine. How can i fix the blower ?
& can i get A/C for this type of car? My dad said this car doesn’t come with any. It’s not manufactured w A/C
My 97 TJ is luke warm at best, mine doesn't have a dial, its the slide lever and it does open the door. I may try back flushing the heater core.
Warlock Gaming any luck with getting yours fixed? Mine has the same problem
My heat worked a bit too well in my TJ until it didn't lol
JK’s have the same issue but harder to get to.
Did the cold air work and the heat did not work, or both were not working? Thank you!
First thing that came to my mind was thermostat Dan
I was looking for this kind of vid, because I akready changed the thermostat and still the same problem, I hope as soon as I change the vent motor I get hot air bowl
Does anyone know if it’s possible to turn it manually to get heat in the mean time until it can be fixed properly ?
Yes it can be turned manually to full "hot". The door should turn easily with your fingers with that actuator removed. My problem is that door/gate is not moving easily (by hand).
Does you heat work on you peterbilt?
Did you ever have heat? My heat starts to get cold starting on the driver side if that makes sense. I got a lot of heater core flushes and it solves the problem for a short period of time.
Don't mix coolents just green violent
And distealed water
Same jeep same problem
How much was the part?
What? They put heaters in Jeeps? When did that happen?
Fuck yes I'll try it
🙂🤙
my heat is intermittent. i will try this. thanks in advance.
Hope it helps

Also check out your thermostat spring tension, they do get weak . If you have been on the road for a long time you should be chasing the wife around the kitchen you goof ball. Good video though.
Engineers got the location of that one right on my old 2000 Expedition I had to take out the console and half the dash...SMH
It ig. HT bl yes
You need a drink!!
