2007 Ford Ranger Blend Door Actuator Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to Service and Repair the Front Blend Door Actuator for the Panel/Floor Door on 2007 Ford Ranger?

  A: Service and repairs on the vacuum control motor for the panel/floor door must begin by accessing the lower steering column cover through hood release handle detachment and two screw removal. The first step requires removing bolts which secure the lower steering column cover reinforcement and later unfastening the two bolts from the instrument panel support brace but follow up with a tightening to 9 Nm (80 lb-in) torque when reinstalling the components. The vacuum hose needs screws removed before disconnecting it yet lever bending should be avoided as the part is fragile and prone to breaking. Slight rotation of the vacuum control motor enables clearance from the retaining arm before removing the motor. The installation process ends through reversing the removal steps mentioned earlier.
