Four Seasons HVAC Defrost Mode Door Actuator,HVAC Mode Door Actuator P/N:73598
Four Seasons 73097 recirculation door actuator for the 2001-2005 Pontiac Montana and other vehicles is the motor unit that moves an HVAC air door when the climate controls call for it. It is also called an HVAC recirculation door actuator.
A failing actuator can show up as air that will not switch between fresh and recirculated, a clicking or grinding sound behind the dash, or airflow stuck on one setting. A damaged connector or a jammed linkage can also keep a door from moving, so look those over with the ignition off before you replace the actuator.
This auxiliary actuator is a direct-fit replacement that also fits the 2001-2005 Chevrolet Venture and the 2001-2004 Oldsmobile Silhouette.
One recirculation door actuator, with lever arm, gear, cam gear hardware and linkage as applicable. This listing holds one actuator.
