Cold Air only


Recommended Posts

I have a 2014 Ford Edge with dual temperature control. As it has started to turn a bit cooler, I attempted to adjust the temperature in the car. I discovered I can only blow cold air. This is the same for both the driver and passenger side. I have read that I most likely need to replace the actuator, but there appear to be 4 of them based upon the parts list form Ford. Does anyone have an idea as to which one I need to replace? Thanks!!!

Is the issue on both sides, driver & passenger?

 

If yes, it's highly unlikely to be the actuator as it would mean that both (RH & LH) failed at the same time. Being a relatively newish car, it is probably an electronic thing. Try disconnecting the car's battery for 10-15 minutes to see if it resets itself.

My 2011 Limited has dual climate control but whether it is on or off, I notice erratic temp control. It is getting cooler each day now so I turn the heat up. Sometimes it is nice and toasty other times it feels like it's just blowing cold air. I've read the posts about the blend door actuators but it seems that mine work properly sometimes but not all the time. If it is affecting both sides which blend door should I suspect? How does one check for proper operation? Is it a visual thing like getting on your knees with the door open while idling? Should it be open to get heat or closed? Should I suspect something else?

 

Thanks.
