Remove the left side instrument panel silencer (the panels attached to the underside of the dash on the driver side). This is done by removing the pushpins that secure the instrument panel silencers to the instrument panel bracket, disconnecting the LED harness and removing the instrument panel silencers.
Remove the screws that secure the blend door actuator to the left side of the HVAC air distribution housing. Remove the blend door actuator from the air distribution housing and disconnect the HVAC wire harness connector and remove the actuator from the vehicle.
