Had my apprentice have the "it won't go together" complaint doing a blend door actuator the other day...told him to gently wiggle things and spin things and it'll go together...he didn't get it, took me 5 seconds to drop it place...then I took it right back out and told him to learn how to do it.

The Chevy Impalas had a similar problem. Replaced several actuators. I think it was for the recirculation door. Did plenty of blend door actuators on either side of the dou zone HVAC systems.

It's incredible this is still a problem. My 97 Explorer had the 'blend door' break and it cost $700 to fix it. Fercrissakes use metal instead of plastic.

My 2014 just started doing this today. I thought it might be a badly constructed bomb. lol Thanks for the vid, but that looks like a major PITA. I may just live with it. What's strange is it does it before I even start the car and continues for a while after the key is out.

After the new motor is installed, remove the fuse for a minute, then replace the fuse, then turn the key forward for a minute so it will perform a calibration.

When motor has power but isnt dropped in, i turn control knob all down on cold side. Should the motor gear keep spinning around in 360 continuously about four or five times, or is my actuator bad?

Just replaced mine and it's still knocking. For sure know it's this one because I can put my hand on it and fill it knocking. Confused why it would be knocking after replaced. I even tried doing what you said to reset. I even remove the fuse.
