    Blend Door Actuator

    My blend door is having problems. I have read the codes on my eatc at got 024.

    Does anyone have the procedure on how to manually engage the actuator or any other way of testing it. I do not know what color the wires are that run to the actuator.

    I am unsure of why my car was behaving like it was. It was stuck on hot for about a day so I took the eatc out after running the diagnostic checked all the vacuum lines etc. Plugged it back in and it worked ever since.

    What issues are your cars experiencing? Maybe it could be worn eatc solenoid o-rings? Mine were original in my 03. My 04 on the other hand had the eatc problem RIP.

    You're still here!!

    Mine blows only hot (really hot!) from correct locations. A/C compressor works and system is charged. I know it's a blend door problem. I've replaced o-rings on original EATC, had blend door motor replaced and now have installed other EATC with o-rings upgraded....all no good.

    When I 1st start the car and run diagnostic, I get code 024 and 025. When cleared and run again, I get 024 only. If I sit still and clear the codes a few times, I have gotten cold air to blow. As soon as I start driving, it goes hot.

    Another member is parting-out an '03. I've already requested the blend door, motor and plenum. Dealing with this for almost 2 months now, happened right when I put her up for sale. Ever try to sell a car in the summer with no a/c?!? !

    Any and all insight welcomed at this point.

    Since the blend door motor is a ***** to replace I'd only get a new one.
