Hey everyone!
So I ran into a couple problems with my explorer. The first, the blend door actuator which I've swapped out now, and the second issue of the vent system.
In order to replace this part, I need to remove the dash, along with the vents themselves to get at it. I'm not sure what the part is called, but it contains the two motors for adjusting the fan speed and where to flow the air.
I got almost everything out of the dash. (Instrument Cluster, Radio, etc.) but got stuck on the Passenger Side Air Bag. There are bolts at the back near the defrost vent and I got those out and the dash itself is ready to come out, but get's stuck on the passenger air bag, and I'm not sure why. I've unhooked my battery for a couple hours before proceeding to unhook the airbag and removed the two bolts at the bottom of it, but it still doesn't' budge.
Any help would be appreciated! I can post some photos later today!
