Installation Procedure


    Object Number: 1194925  Size: SH
  1. Position the right air temperature actuator (2). Align the slots in the electric actuator driver to the flats on the shaft.
  2. Align the locating hole to the alignment pin on the HVAC module case.
  3. Slide the actuator on the shaft. The actuator driver should seat completely onto the shaft and the mounting holes should be flush with the mounting screws on the HVAC module case.

Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

  5. Install the screws to the right air temperature actuator.
  6. Tighten
    Tighten the screws to 1.5 N·m (13 lb in).
