Restore proper HVAC operation with the Dorman - OE Solutions HVAC Blend Door Actuator 604-268, a position-specific electric actuator that drives an air door inside the heating and air-conditioning case to direct airflow. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2007 Ford Five Hundred, 2005-2007 Ford Freestyle, 2008-2009 Ford Taurus X, and 2005-2007 Mercury Montego. Cataloged for the MAIN and AUXILIARY, Mode positions — because these vehicles often use several different air door actuators, review the application notes to confirm this matches the location and function of the actuator you need to replace.
- Position specific: serves a defined HVAC door location and function; verify it against the actuator you're replacing.
- Direct replacement: engineered to install like the original air door actuator on the listed applications.
- Durable construction: designed and tested to strict standards to help resist wear and electrical burnout for reliable operation.
- Trustworthy quality: backed by a team of experts and engineers in the United States and more than a century of experience.
If a failed blend/mode door actuator is the cause of inconsistent temperature or airflow direction, this replaces it.
