Because cold air only comes out of the passenger side vents with a/c on, I'm trying to replace the left side plenum door actuator on the driver side. After removing the 3 mounting screws, the actuator seems to be hung up on the shaft. Because everything is plastic, I hesitate to pry on it too hard. Do you think there is something that I'm overlooking? Thanks

Good afternoon,

No, there is nothing else to remove. It should just pull off.

Give it a little pry with a screw driver.

Your matter-of-fact way gave me the confidence I needed, Roy. It was stubborn but it came off. Thanks! RJV, Indy
