Question about heater/ac system
I've been having the same problems as many people on the forum...it seems to be a regular issue. My system only blows out hot air. It seems to be the blend door actuator as I have been reading. I got a new one online, and started reading up how to replace it, it doesn't seem to be too big a deal even for a non mechanic like me. As I was looking behind the glove compartment, I noticed that there is a vacuum controlled actuator with a metal arm that looks like it is supposed to be connected to a white device sticking out of the heater system (like that description?). The metal arm is broken off of the white part. I'm attaching a picture I found if it online while doing some research...THIS IS NOT MY SYSTEM. My questions are, what does this piece do? Is this why I blow out hot air, and not the blend door actuator? Is their an easy way to fix it? It looks like I may need to tear apart the entire dash, but if it won't fix the heat problem, I'm not going to bother with it.
