## Description

Heater Blend Door Actuator

Review: Great product but pain to install. - This part is HARD and Difficult to install based where it is in the vehicle. The part works great and once installed I have zero issues. If you’re not ready to take apart the front dash of your vehicle and have about 2-3 hours to spend getting this in place, I recommend a professional replacing this part. Great value though if you’re willing to spend the time replacing yourself.
Review: Fits a 2016 Ford Explorer PIU exactly - Works 100% as expected. Getting the old one out and this new one back in is a whole other story. I did like several YouTube channels said and pulled the bottom of the dash and the speedo cluster out. Took 1 hour to remove the old part and I wasted a lot of time trying to get the new one in as the splines would never line up and my hands were too big. I ran out of daylight on the first attempt to get it back in so the next day I tried again but used a long set of hemostat (about 1 ft long) to hold the actuator under the dash while lining up all the bolts and splines. Once I used this tool, I had it installed and the dash back together in under 1 hour. Part looked exactly as the OEM it removed, as expected because it was advertised as a Motorcraft part

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 2016 Ford explorer vent mode selector motor.
*by C***W on December 12, 2025*

This is the motor you need if your vents won't change from defrost to vent or floor. Absolute nightmare to get to, but we were able to go in behind the gauge cluster. Exact match of the motor we removed. Functions as expected. Will update if it fails.
