Hello fellow Jeepers,

So at some point early last year I noticed my heat and A/C weren't working right. I took it to my mechanic who flushed the radiator, changed the thermostat and replaced the Blend Door Actuator behind the dash. I know there are 3 in my 2013 Wrangler.

Summer came and I didn't pay much attention to it until winter... At the moment it shoots all cold (left rotation of the dial) or all hot (right rotation of the dial) but trying to get it into the warm setting/area...no go.

Searching the all-knowing google machine it indicated the driver side Blend Door Actuator could be the problem. I took covers off and started to turn the dial and it all seemed to move smoothly in both directions... but still, no warm air.

Just to make sure, I replaced the Actuator to see if that was the issue... still no warm air... same as before.

So, I'm outa ideas but hope you guys have some light to share.

Thanks

Thank you. I actually found a local dealer with a new one for $69. Driving there this week to get it. But it's a different part number but I think it will still work. what do you think?
thanks for the help!
I think they're relatively generic, and the one I attached is actually used. Most of the new ones I saw were well over $100, so good on ya for finding a new one that cheap!
The one I attached, after checking the VIN, came off a 2013 Sport, auto with the 3.6.
 
Well, resurfacing my issue. The item I originally purchased did not have the option for the rear defrosters which is why it as so cheap. So I purchased the correct one, replaced it and the problem persists.
Looking for new ideas now.
Thanks in advanced.
