Air Inlet Mode Door Position
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup, 2012 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2012 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2012 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The air inlet mode door actuator moves the air inlet door between the fresh and RECIRC positions on command from the HVAC module. The air inlet mode door actuator is driven to, and automatically stops at, the full RECIRC or full fresh air inlet position and does not require a potentiometer circuit to monitor its position. The air inlet mode door does not stop at any point between the RECIRC or fresh air inlet position.
The air inlet mode door actuator is located on the air inlet duct behind the glove compartment.
