My wife was grumbling the AC don't work on the truck, just blows hot air. Pipe from compressor is cold so that'* working. So I'm thinking air mix door. Bring up the manual and find it. Pull out half the dash on the right side. Hmm, that'* odd. There'* the plug for the air mix, and I see where it goes. But it'* not there. WTH. So I look at the manual again. Best I can tell, this truck has a left side actuator, not a right side. Really didn't want to rip that side off. Well, it started working. I hope it keeps working.
