Fixed my problem. 2013 Taurus Limited, the passenger side climate was stuck on A/C, tight and difficult for me as I’m not very mechanical but in 30 minutes with multiple breaks I was able to get it done, I finally figured out to put a pillow down so I wasn’t crushing my ribs which made the ordeal much better. Thank you for this video it saved me money
When I turn on my heat or AC, nothing is blowing on the passenger side or sometimes you can barely feel it. Only the driver side works great. Could that method help fix the problem?
the 2 Temperature Blend door actuators are easy to replace but the vent door actuator and its only one at the top on the driver side is hard as hell to get to and remove and replace
I am having difficulty getting at the actuator because of the black cover that goes over top, can I cut the holding pin to loosen that piece so I can access that actuator easily.
So on my 2015 Ford Taurus the AC is working on the driver side, but the heat is coming out on the passenger side.. hopefully this will fix my problem ‼️
Great video. Job completed and was difficult to get to on Taurus X. AC was not going on at passenger side. Now I have AC on passenger side. Unfortunately now the driver side is not as cold. Trying to figure out what to do next. Any suggestions?
Slightly low freon can cause driver side to be Slightly warmer. Schrader valves commonly leak on Ford cars and create a very slow leak. Thanks for watching.
My ac doesn’t turn on at all or heater in my 2015 Taurus police interceptor. Do you have any idea what is wrong with it. Out of nowhere, turns on and out of nowhere, it doesn’t work again.
I have an issue where only the front passenger side blows hot air when the AC is on. To see if it is the passenger side actuator at fault could i temporary change it with the one directly behind the glove box? Great video on how to get to the actuator. Thanks
Man ... I believe I can do this... Thank you for this video. And I thought my Glass was not coated Half way. or what's the word.. anyway I'm going to a Ford Dealer to make sure I have the proper Actuator. I have a 2017 Ford Taurus AWD SEL. Hey is it possible to replace the SYNC. Mine keeps killing the fuse 10amp. No short.. just sometimes when I start the car... then it blows the fuse. Any suggestions?
Thank you, I just found this video. I have a 2010 Taurus SHO doing the same thing. I am going to try this repair myself before I take ti dealer for service. I didn't think it was that easy.
Helpful video, but a little misleading about how easy this is. 😆 This was a bear to tear apart on my 2014 Flex, and worse to put back together! My advice is not to mess with the blend door by trying to turn it with a screwdriver. You'll just booger up the splines and it won't stay put. Instead, when you put it back together, have the car running, and plug the actuator in after you get it fiddled back in behind everything but not seated in place. Once it's plugged in, you can adjust the temp settings on your climate control to get the actuator to spin to the right spot.
Thanks I did that on the one before but I managed to still lose it. I did the latest one and was lucky to recover the screw three yep 3 times. Not looking forward to the next time. I might try to get the vehicle up off the ground a little so I won't have to be so uncomfortable. The one behind the glove compartment was the easiest.

I wanna say a big thank you for this video man you have helped me so much You video has the best view on what to do and voicing steps
I’m still struggling with getting my new one in but this is the best video I’ve seen on it and I think I’ve watched them all at this point. Thank you
Glad I could help!

Some are more difficult, you are correct.

@@GinoF-z2l wouldn't cut anything ever on an airbox.
@GinoF-z2l there is a twisting force on actuators the holding pin is ment to absorbed all that force so the screws don't have to take all the force.
@@DrDemp Thanks for the reply, great video. Easy to understand and show exactly what to expect.

appreciate the part number and wobble idea!

Definitely sounds like a blower resistor or motor if no air is blowing at all. Could be wiring as well. Lots of possibilities

This was a great video! Thank you so much! 👍🏻
You are so welcome!
Very nice job thanks for sharing.
Biggest issue I had was getting the door and actuator gears to index correctly. Fought for half an hour, came back and it slipped together first try.
Sometimes that's how it works 😊 glad it worked out smoothly!
Thank you!

My 2010 Taurus just started blowing hot air on the passenger side. Did you have an easy time installing?
Helped me, and for that I thank you! good work.
Glad I could help.
Thanks for supporting my channel.
I changed mines on the passenger side no heat still from either side new thermostat also any ideas
Unfortunately this can be a huge array of problems and I cannot comment. Hopefully you got this adressed.
Mines is stuck on heat

I tried this but it seemed to continuously spin in one direction and now won’t do it again as I unplug and plug
Fucking legend.
Haha well thank you 😊
Not a fun job , thanks for the video the first time i did this i dropped the back screw.
Try electrical tape next time for the screw it works!!
