My apologies if this has already been asked but I wasn't able to find this exact question in all the discussion posts even though it seems so simple.
I've had to replace the blend door actuators on my 2013 Chrysler 200 3 different times over the last 9 years, and multiple other small random items, and now I believe I have to do it a 4th time. I'm aware there are 3 blend door actuators in total. I've replaced the parts needed that control the fan speed and I've replaced the one that controls the location of where the air flows (i.e., feet, dash, etc.) - I've actually done this one twice now. However, now my temp control doesn't work and ALWAYS blows cold air regardless of where it's set. I've looked and inspected under the hood to make sure it's not a larger issue where my car isn't producing heat at all, but that wasn't case (in fact I've even replaced all the thermostats over the last year) yet the heat just is not coming into the cabin of the car. I've tried looking up the door actuator that controls this 'knob' but I'm finding conflicting information.
Are all blend door actuators the same piece but just used in different locations within the dash OR is there a specific actuator just for this function (AC/heat)?
I thought they were all the same however I bought one a while back thinking it was the correct piece but the individual I had install it told me it was the "wrong door actuator" and wouldn't work. I thought, at that time, he was feeding me a bunch of BS, but now I'm questioning it. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!
