Unlike the exact same type of Heat Flap Actuator ( Visteon vp1s7h-19e616-bb ) which is located behind the glove box, this one is really difficult to access. In the end, I used a 10mm Drill Bit to make a hole through the plastic directly in line with the screw. That way I was able to access the screw head with a torx driver easily. ..Obviously not ideal, but it worked well. :-)
Yeah I have the same question, looks like you either have to pull the dash out or remove the foot/knee airbag to allow some movement and then bend the f&$% out of the side panel to fit your hand in and unscrew. Any updates/tips since you asked the question ? Thanks
@@user-uu4qw3pr1r way easier than that. Stupid easy location for UK cars. Hard to explain but here is a video that shows it th-cam.com/video/zHvNcDoSO9Y/w-d-xo.html If that link doesn’t work video title to search is “Ford fiesta only hot or only cold air found” I used a torx drill bit and an adjustable spanner to get it out
FORD FIESTA MK7 HEATER FLAP ACTUATOR 1S7H-19E616-BB 2008 - 2012 ( The part is labelled as "Visteon vp1s7h-19e616-bb"). Note: this is a Heat Flap Actuator, which is different to a Blend Door Actuator apparently ..not that I can find a blend door actuator anywhere in my UK RHD 2011 Fiesta despite hours of looking 😞

Looking for someone with RHD so thanks. What Rachel did you use to get it in can’t get the trim of around it

That link directs back to this video, can you explain how you got to the screw (without drilling a hole in the car!)
