• Q: How to Service the Blend Door Actuator for the Panel/Floor Door on 2008 Ford Ranger?

  A: The initial step to service the vacuum control motor for the panel/floor door requires removing the lower steering column cover through a sequence starting with detached hood release handle screws and proceeding with removal of two more screws. After removing the lower steering column cover reinforcement bolts proceed by unfastening the two bolts securing the instrument panel support brace before tightening both hardware items to 9 Nm (80 lb-in) torque. The vacuum hose requires screw removal before disconnecting it with caution since the lever shows brittleness and potential breaking. Twist the vacuum control motor so it passes by the retaining arm before taking out the motor. The procedure ends by undoing every action step performed for removal.
