About a month ago, on crank, I noticed a 1-2 second noise coming from right behind the HVAC controls, then it would go away. Also I would get the same noise if I turned the manual AC **** to colder air. I get the truck yesterday and it seems now my AC just isnt getting cold and I no longer get the noise on crank or when turning the ****. Also seems like adjusting the **** has no affect on temp of air coming out anymore.

Does this sound like the blend actuator went out?

It has no problems switching between vents (defrost to face to floor)

When i look it up, it lists like 5 different actuators on RockAuto....!? So confusing

Specs: 2014 XLT
Manual HVAC controls
No full length console

Sounds like it.

 

Yep. Actuator.
