2010 Lariat heater problem - No heat on left side - HeLp
I am leaving on a trip soon with a new [used ] 2010 Lariat. It didn't come with an owners manual and I have a heater problem. The heater won't blow warm air on the drivers side! No heat on defrost or any other setting for the driver. Warm air blowing on the pass side.
Any ideas on what might be wrong?
I plan on leaving in a couple days, so should I head to the Ford dealer or is this a simple thing?? H-E-L-P

I have tried it with temperature settings the same on both sides and also set different on both sides. I have tried it set as high as 90 on the cold side [drivers], stilll blows cold.

If you do not have an owners manual, you can download one for free from http://www.motorcraftservice.com/vdi...&menuIndex1=16

One is on the topside of the heater assy, somewhere behind the radio or a bit lower. The other is on the bottomside next to the hump of the floor. I forget which motor operates which side. The upper motor is easy. The bottom one - you don't want to hear this -
a monster of a job. I helped a Ford mechanic on his day off. ---8 hours and we had to drain and recharge the AC system.
Best of luck !

The problem was with one of the actuator motors that operate the blend doors.

---The drivers side is the bottom one. Ask me how I know. . .$1200 of labour for a $100 part. Just had mine done a week ago, it was blowing full on hot air on the driver side no matter what temperature I set it at. No fun on a 6 hour drive. And yes, I'm well out of warranty at 144k km (90k miles) ---
That sounds about right ! A Ford design flaw!!!

My '08 had it go to, but it wasn't dual climate controlled, so it was easier for them to get at. . .but it was the exact same issue, blend door actuator biting the dust. That truck was only at about 70K miles when it happened. I thought they might start using better blend door actuators in newer models as it was a common issue on the 08. I guess I thought wrong. I had them replace the other one while they were in there. . .
