Questions & Answers
Like many of the people who reviewed this product, I resolved my issue only by using the "mode door actuator" provided with the product. Although I was worried the actuator I bought might not fit the existing assembly in the car, it happened to fit (since removing the assembly would have been a great deal more of a hassle). Buying the actuator by itself or purchasing the assembly with the actuator included cost almost the same at the time, so I saw it as a worthwhile expenditure. In any case, you should check with the seller to get the details about what will be sent to I wish you the best of
There is a part on the air box of the gas pedal on the drivers side of the vehicle that makes a clicking sound, and when it is broken it causes air to blow from the wrong place.
It's hard to say for sure. Under the dash of my 2002 Cadillac DHS Deville, I found at least three actuators. It is up to you to decide which of the three you require. You are asking about one of two replaced actuators, and that one is inside the position of the one that must be removed to get to the one you are asking about. By far the most difficult tool to access under the dash is this. The tape) to retrieve After I installed one, it failed within a month due to a lack I have still not been able to resolve it even after Amazon replaced it but adjusting it correctly for the second one has been a nightmare. From the AC settings, there was hot air coming out of the vents. The next day it improved by cooling the passenger side dash vent, but left the driver's side hot. The most difficult thing is when assembling the entire part (the actuator and white cog/black plastic mounting assembly), you have to align the pins very precisely. The actuator should be replaced only since the cogs are not usually the issue. Others suggest removing the actuator from the assembly and replacing only this component. You can find some YouTube videos on this topic on the web. The "Wayback Machine" may let you find a good site that Sparky had up at one time. I am not sure if it is still up, but you might try searching for it using that term. For those who have never heard of it, you can Google "blend door actuator" by adding the word Cadillac. After spending a hundred dollars trying to fix a $500 repair, I still cannot solve the issue. I am sorry that I could not help you more, and good luck to you. The following is a note for your information There's one thing to keep in mind if you take this on. Located behind and above the radio, this actuator is located on the right side. Do not disconnect the radio from a Cadillac or any other GM product while you work on it. Your car is only going to start with a security code that can be obtained from the dealer. Again, I removed the radio from the passenger side before I was able to access this actuator. Having that nightmare was awful. Yes, I believe that. Do I need to mention this is a nightmare, especially if you have a large fist. Put it out of your mind. In order to remove the small screws, a 4 was needed. The socket was a 5MM socket (or perhaps I have forgotten the diameter of its socket) equipped with a 1/4 inch thumb/finger ratchet and Earlier I mentioned a "nightmare." Did I forget to mention it? The dash can be removed if you know how. A bad dream may be all it is. You can find information about GM on the GM Blogs and on In any case, if you take on this challenge. Feel free to let me know how it went. Wishing you the best of luck.

The product worked as expected. The motor was the only thing I used the cam housing was not. We found this full assembly to be more cost effective than just buying In 2004 I installed it on my A section of the floor duct was cut to gain access to the motor on the driver's side after the knee kick panel was removed and the knee kick panel removed. Panels are now cycled smoothly and quietly by a new motor.
It wouldn't fit behind the glove compartment. I had to order a different style because of this. The HVAC has not yet been resolved, so now I must order the "EVAP CASE" for a 2000 Deville. You will have a difficult time finding it. It is impossible to find one even at local Caddy dealers. It looks like I will be participating in the salvage yard crawl next weekend. In addition, I hate snakes just like Indy!.
The clicking sound I heard in my 04 Deville is driving me insane and will leave my feet cold while the rest of me is I was able to fix the confused air conditioner that would cycle through the different air vents until it settled I used to spray sweat from above the waist and lose feeling in my toes from frost bite. I originally unplugged the actuator so that ventilation only came from forward facing vents. However, the defroster is needed during the colder months, so I had to replace the.
I had a 2001 Cadillac Deville DHS with a mode actuator that stopped working. As described in other reviews, this product fixed it perfectly. The vents on the right side of my dash were not blowing air. I heard clicking inside my dash. It turns out that the original motor had 1 cylinder Two very tiny teeth were broken on a single plastic gear, resulting in nothing but trouble. In the same way as others, I came across this item through a Cadillac forum thread. There are probably plenty of resources on the Internet regarding fixing the mode actuator on a Cadillac Deville. It was possible to take the motor off of this, and I saved the casing and the cam for a rainy day when I hope that I will never have to use them (replacing the motor was challenging but possible, but replacing the entire device I will say that having to get to the screws is the hardest part of the job, but as for reinstalling the motor, I will advise you to use bubble gum on a socket to keep screws in place while you The effort is not easy, but if you follow the steps it can be accomplished, and for many hundreds less than what the dealership wanted to charge to fix the issue.
On one of the internal gears of my old one, there was a broken tooth. After a short period, I was able to use my defrost system or vents again.
We ship OE parts the next day.
On my 2001 DHS, all I had to do was replace the motor part (3 screws) and all the vent controls worked To access the broken device, I first unscrewed the cover under the steering wheel, then I pulled out the dash cover, which snapped into place. You need a bit of patience, but the whole dash board doesn't have to come.
There was clicking noise when my AC was defrosting on a 2005 Cadillac DHS with automatic climate control. Here is a do-it-yourself guy. The 30th - It took forty minutes to replace, and now the air is coming out of the top vents. It's just a matter of searching on Google and watching some YouTube videos. I got the thumb ratchet and it made it much easier. An ideal score of 10.
