I KNEW there was a reason I saved the old actuator! Now I am going to fix it and have a spare!

Just be careful keeping the motor in place. It CAN be reversed which would really mess things up. The one I worked on had blue QC marks on the "top" half with positive lead on the motor inside or furthest from the plug connector. Test the motor before committing on a repair. If I can locate a source for the motor, I'll post it. Repairing these motors is possible but only if your other hobby is repairing watches.
 
Soldering is easy but since the terminals are right next to the brush holders, use a large 35-40 watt iron. Weller makes a great 40 Watt that is cheap. Why a lot of heat? Conduction. With more heat, less time is needed.
 
Flux core 63/37 or 60/40 in 0.062". Only solder the outboard portion, this is overkill as the motor MIGHT draw 4 amps at the most. Doing the outside only keeps the brush holders cool. They are polyamide which will tolerate 400 F for a short spell.

When you changed out your thermostat you may have allowed air in the system. To correct the problem you need to bleed the system by opening a small brass fitting just above where your thermostat is .

can't control heat/ac flow. by jack137

I have a 2000 impals LS and cannot control the heat /ac air flow, it seems to be stuck in a default setting (all vents). The fan operates fine and the vent switch seem to be operating. I did have a rattling coming from the passenger blower motor area for a few seconds but has stopped. When looking under the dash on that side I cannot hear any movement in the air box when turning the control switch. Any ideas where to start?

I have an identical situation, the fluid had gotten a low. Did you resolve the situation by bleeding the line or further steps?

I am replacing the heater control panel on the dash since many lights are burned out.
 
The replacement part only has 2 screw holes, 2 push in tabs, and one plug-in wire strip.
 
I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO REMOVE THE HEATER CONTROL PANEL !

2005 Impala Interior Heat Problem by sonofadocker
Sep 11, 2009 (9:31 am)

purchased this Impala at the police car auction.
This car has frosty a/c but there is no heat at all with the controls on hot.
The car interior will heat up if the car is left running/parked.
As soon as you start to drive the air turns cold again.
Any idea on what needs to be done ?
Old school used to be a vacuum diaphram under the hood...
Thanks
