Additional info

I was trying to trouble shoot (or at least looking at things) I noticed that this “pink” armed actuator doesn’t move at all, and I think it may the cause of my problems. Can anyone identify this part? I cant upload pics from my iPhone or i would share the pic!

I did note that the faint amount of air i can feel moving does change temperature as i move from low temps to High, Which leads me to believe that the temperature control flap is working.

Is there anyone who can provide some assistance, I have searched high and low, and i doubt that this could be a problem that hasn’t been encountered before.

Thanks

Sounds like a challenge. Is that pink actuator supposed to move? Under what conditions? What might cause it to not move? What might be done to cause it to move. Maybe it just needs to be replaced. You might have some more research and reading ahead of you.

If you do upload a pic please make certain it fits the page. None of those ****************ing extraordinary oversized pictures. You're new. Please, don't be the guy that is incapable of posting a reasonably sized pic that requires hours of scrolling. Maybe do some reading on sizing pics.

Other than that... welcome to the club. See ya around. Have a nice day.

I have tried to upload a pic, however, I am at a loss.

The upload page says pics no larger that 2mb, and that the page will re-size, so when i attempt to upload a picture smaller that 2mb i get an error message saying the 1.5mb pic is to big...

anyway around this issue, so that i can get to my regularly programed issue?
