It's that back screw that makes it interesting. Some folks have trimmed the carpet a bit, for better access, but, yeah, ya don't need to pull the dash to play with it.

But when I turn it back to full heat it stays at full cold. It’s like it gets confused. Brand new actuator, and brand new coupler.Blend door has no play and moves very easily by hand. This isn’t a huge deal, but I can’t stand it that I can’t figure it out.
the back screw wasn’t a problem for me. Just took a little patience. 🙂🙂
