Death Roe Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Hey guys, New to the board. Just wanted to see/read my options on here. No one really, from what I've read, has this exact issue. I have some ideas floating in my head, but wanted thoughts/suggestions first. My 2010 SHO is great, but I noticed on Friday that when I had the dual climate control set, mine was at a steady 72 and feeling good. When I had my mom in the car, her side was blowing insanely hot heat. I tried putting the DCC on her side at the lowest settings, nothing. Tried turning the AC/air circulation button on, nothing worked. The more I turned the blower on, the hotter and faster the hot air blew. I have read up on it, seems like I can reset the battery connection (- one) and see if that works, or just bite the bullet and go to the dealer. Thanks for the input in advance!

bpd1151 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 It sounds to me like it is the blend door actuator. Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhenne4 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Ive had the same issue when i forget to refill the flux capacitor. The fix is a few more banana peels in the Mr Fusion up front and you are good to go. All kidding aside, in my no where even close to expert opinion, it might be worth just going to the dealership. Is it still under some warranty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3ponies Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Drove me nuts on my 2010 until I asked the dealer. It was covered for me and fixed ASAP. Shut the actuator door! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhpadi Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 I'm with bpd on this one, it sounds like the blend door actuator may be the problem...fairly common and our cars do have 2 of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 If you are not under warranty, it is a 20 dollar 15 minute fix with genuine motorcraft parts. See my photos in the link above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
