If your vehicle’s vents no longer change direction or the cabin temperature is uneven between driver and passenger sides, a failed blend door actuator is often the cause. This A-NAFTULY actuator (OE references 22816196, 15-74295, 1574295) is designed to match the original part’s shape and connector for straightforward installation and reliable operation across varied climates. The unit is tested to meet form, fit, and function expectations and ships with an 18-month warranty and a welcome guide to help with fitment and recalibration steps.

How will this actuator affect cabin temperature and airflow?

The blend door actuator moves internal HVAC doors that mix hot and cold air and route ventilation to different outlets. Replacing a faulty actuator restores correct mode selection and blend functions so the HVAC system can achieve the set temperatures and vent positions again.

• Controls blend of hot and cold air for accurate temperature mixing

• Supports dual-zone function to maintain separate driver and passenger settings
