Default New kid on the block

Hello all,
I'm a Ford owner way back to my first, a 71 Pinto LOL. Currently owning a 2012 F-150 Lariat. Right now I'm having 2 issues with it after 105k miles. 2 bad O2 sensors and probably bad blend door actuator. Ive gotten a estimate on the O2 sensors, $800 plus. Any info on the Blend Door actuator would be helpful! I have seen on youtube some fixes but looks very complicated.

Doug

Welcome to the site Doug. My friend in high school had a 71 Pinto, he painted it purple...thought it was going to be a 'chick-magnet'....man was he wrong. Good luck in finding a fix for your problem, wish I could help, but I only drive these things and don't have a clue on your issue.

Hey doug welcome to the forum.
$800 seems kinda steep for 2 O2 sensors.....
unless that includes fixing the reason the sensors went bad.


As far as the actuator, most are changed pretty easy.
If its the door that's broken, then that's a $$$ job.
