I have the dreaded blend door problem. It is definitely not the recirc door that is easy to replace. It is the one that controls the movement of air between the floor, panels, and defrost. Though we have survived the summer as is, we will need defrost this winter. I am hopin that some of you have found a great place to get this fixed in the Phoenix metro (anywhere, we will drive) that will cost less than the 800-1000 that the dealer charges. Hopefully, they won't mess everything else up like the dealer also. Originally posted in wrong forum. We have a 2003 Ram 2500 with Cummins.

Link http://www.*********.com/forums/showthread.php?t=193467

 

Hey the Link dont work.... ? ?

 

Guess someone feels threatened here about linking to another site
Shame that especially when your just trying to help a memeber.

Anyways just use the link but change the * to Dodge Talk but no spaces

Tried to attach the Word file but even at the site it is missing bits that make the pictures flicker, so it can not be downloaded here.

Its a good step by step DIY with photo's but as said before they flicker/Flash.

Hope that helps, and doesn't get me Banned

 

I hope that it doesn't get you banned as well BCGray.
I guess you could always use the PM link to send him a message, but that doesn't get this really usefull info out to the many people who use this board and find stuff like this really helpful for possible future reference.
Al.

P.S. Good find.

 

Yea this would be a really ****ty forum, if you trying to help other members out
with info would get you banned..
Isnt that the point of a forum to share !

Well thank you

 

Im doubting you will need it fixed anytime soon though, as its still in the hundreds during the day right now and probably wont cool off to much til november if that. As for a place to get it fixed, there is a really good hole in the wall a/c repair shop in Mesa, I'll have to get back to you on the name of it though as Im at work and need to look it up at home, but they have really cheap services. Generally they were about $300+ cheaper than every where else for all sorts of different a/c problems. You just have to get over the fact that the owner/head mechanic only has 4 yellow teeth, all the others are either black and falling out or not there at all, he quite litterally looks like he was kicked in the face by a mule or something cause he is one butt ugly old guy, but, he knows his stuff and gives excellent deals.

 

Though I live down here in the desert, we go north a lot and will need it sooner rather than later. I would appreciate the name of the shop, I don't care what they look like as long as the work is good. Also, thanks to BCGray for the link of the great write-up.
