My blend door (2001) was on the bottom side of the box. Tried for an hour or so to remove that darn floor duct work. Long story short I used a sawsall and made a cut just to the left of the port that goes under the carpet towards the rear (4-door tk) and was able to slide the right half of this plastic vent tube out very easy, thus allowing me room for a 8mm socket to remove the blend door motor.

I had a leaking heater core that I replaced a few days ago. All was fine until my wife decides to steal my truck because her car was dirty. She came home and threw the keys at me and said she would never drive it again. She was stuck in traffic on a 90 degree day and could not get the dash to stop blowing hot air, She was mad!

I had drove the truck a couple of days and all was fine for me. Apparently the leaking antifreeze made it's way to the motor and found the circuit board. It just took a couple of days before it shorted out some solder connections. I'll not tell my wife about this...
