Best Answer

Tools you will need.

one torx wrench

one bottle of rubbing alcohol

q-tips

hammer

phillips head screwdriver

so go ahead and start by unscrewing all the screws in the door panel, when you get those off, just go slow when you remove the panel, there's all sorts of wires and bars and the such going on inside of there. So when you get all of that disconnected there's a weird white plastic panel, now this thing doesn't look to intimidating, and it's really not a problem, the problem is the glue that holds it on, it stretches when you pull the plastic off and gets everywhere, then it drips for some reason. So peel that bad boy off of there and take a look at the actuator, yeah its pretty far back in there, no worries though, i'll talk you through it. on the outside of the door there's three bolts, go ahead and undo those. lefty loosy. so now that you have that done place the q-tips in the alcohol, make sure to get them super saturated. now stick them in your eye. its best to be blind durning this part. don't worry you can't see anything back there anyways and it just makes things more frustrating anyways. go ahead and take a few swigs off that bottle as well, to fix that vision problem. now theres four bars connected to the auctuator, one goes to the inside door handle, one goes to the outside door handle. and the other two were installed to frustrate you. have fun tring to get them off of there. i hope you rolled your window up. if you didn't don't worry.

Tool you will need

boot

install boot into side of door. there that pesky window should be gone now.well if you got the actuator off then good for you. did you ever play those mind puzzles when you were a kid. like get the star shaped object out of the metal ring, you kind of have to manuver it just right and it can take a couple of days. well pulling the actuator out is like that. except you have a couple of poky bars cutting your hands all up while you do it. if you get it out thats great, i hope you work in a safe neighborhood. if not dont bring anything valuable to work because getting the new actuator in will take about a week of your time. best of luck to you.

How do you change blend door actuator on a dodge Dakota?

The blend door actuator on late model Dodge Durango and small pickup can be accessed by removing the glove box. There is a very common problem with blend door failure in these vehicles, and dash removal is required to perform the repair. A cheap and easy DIY fix for this can also be found at heatertreater. They also make a heater core regulator which bypasses the blend door and can remedy the situation with no dash removal.
