To replace the vent mode door actuator in a 2006 GMC Envoy Denali, start by disconnecting the battery to ensure safety. Remove the necessary dashboard components, including the center console and the trim panels, to access the actuator, which is typically located behind the dashboard. Disconnect the actuator's electrical connector and remove the mounting screws to take out the old actuator. Install the new actuator by reversing the process, ensuring all connections are secure before reassembling the dashboard.

The mode door actuator is typically located within the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system of a vehicle. It can often be found behind the dashboard, attached to the air distribution housing. Accessing it usually requires removing panels or components near the dashboard to reach the actuator directly. Its primary function is to control the direction of airflow through the vehicle's vents.
Only one thing there. The blower motor for the heating and AC. Turn it off and see if it still happens. A constant faint clicking sound may indicate a failing mode door actuator. If the blower does not seem like the issue and change in frequency of clicks with the speed setting then the mode door actuator and an inability to select air flow may be your problem. www.trailvoy.com
