2002 Mitsubishi Galant Heater Shut / Actuator Motor
Hello memebers,
I've a 2002 Galant that has always had issues when selecting temperature dial from cold to hot (would hear clicking noise under dash whenever I switched it from cold to hot ). Recently, when I select hot, air blows cold. No clicking noise present and no heat! I believe the Heater Shut Motor (believe it is also referred to as Heater temp actuator motor and Heater Blend Door Actuator), has become defective / stripped. I understand this to be very common issue with 2002 - 03 Galant / Eclipse.
Has anyone experienced the same issue and installed heater shut motor and confirm it resolved heat issue? Believe OEM part number for my application to be MR958603
Here is a video showing part I believe is causing loss of heat;
