Hi,

New to the forum. I did a forum search but didn't find exactly what I am looking for.

My problem is occasionally my defrost-vent actuator does not work properly. I have been poking around and here is what I found.

Under the dash (beside the accelerator pedal) the defrost actuator is physically loose. You can rattle the actuator can around. I don't think it is supposed to be like that (but I could be wrong). Can anyone confirm?

You can feel it shift around when you change the selector position. My thought is that the actuator is working but the travel is hampered by the whole actuator moving away and not pushing the rod enough.

If it is supposed to be bolted tight can I do that without removing the whole dash/instrument panel? Or am I screwed? I can't see any bolts.

Thanks.

 

Mine is loose as well however my def works just fine. I also thought this was a problem but I'm not so sure now. Weird if they were designed to be floppy like that
