I have pulled apart the dash to replace the actuator.
Where is it physically mounted?
I can't see it.

Mine was replaced by Carfixer just by pulling the dash off the firewall about a foot. It's located right of center and if you bought the new one - you know what you're looking for. Tip; One of the screws that hold it can be loosened but not easily removed so notch that hole in the new actuator to install it easier. Just break the old one off once you remove the easy screws. Lay a mirror face down on the windshield and it will make your view into the dash easier. Backasswards but easier.

I found it and was able to remove one screw.
Can't get at the other two.
I am now stuck.
Anyone know how to remove the entire dash?
Actually, if you remove the glove box assembly and passenger side airbag, it's pretty easy.
If you want to remove the dash, it is quite a process, I'll try to condense it.
Remove the panel at the top of the dash by the windshield, it snaps off, remove the 5 or 6, 7mm screws
Remove the gauge pod....if its a Marauder
the is a 10 mm bolt on each side in the center that will need removed.
Remove the trim below the steering column, remove the bolts holding the column up, 4, 18mm IIRC
Remove both kick panels, there is a single 10mm bolt on each side, remove them.
pull the dash away from the firewall, it is heavy and bulky, get help for this, just set it as far back as you can, as the wiring is still attached, it won't move far. You will have loads of room if you go this route, if you've never done it before, you will be in for an experience.
I would recommend removing just the airbag and glove box, I can do these in just under 3 hours now. If you close to me, I would be willing to help you out.

i was told when it went in my 97 explorer that it is from condensation build up while running the a/c at max setting. i was told to avoid this in the future to switch from the max a/c to the a/c five minutes before arriving at my destination.
right or wrong that's what i do now

I did the glove box and airbag removal as well. I just had to get creative with the hard to reach screw. I just found a good combo between using gear wrenches and small rachet and sockets.

There is a write up on CV.net on the replacement of the heater core, which in the process the blend door actuator module is accessable.

I have an offset ratcheting wrench with a short extension and socket that works great.
