Question Mode Damper Servo Sub Assembly
I have a 2006 4Runner Sport V8. I noticed a "clicking" sound coming from the front passenger side of the dash. As I investigated this further, it seems that I have a problem with the "Mode Damper Servo Sub Assembly (Air Outlet Damper Control Servo Motor)"
My question is, has anyone ever replaced or repaired one of these servos on a 4th Gen 4Runner and if so do you have any tips or steps to follow?

Jim

Its not too difficult. You should probably pull off the glove box and lower air duct. After that youll see what to do.

there is more than one servo as i've come to understand. one of mine went bad and the part wasn't cheap to replace. i didn't do it myself. had the dealer handle it. i think in total they charged me a few hundred? not sure.

sorry i can't be of more help, but just letting you know you're not a lone ranger with this bad servo deal.

Its not as simple as just pulling off the glove box and lower panel. That would work for the "Air-Mix Servo" but I think I'm going to have to pull out the blower unit as well to get to this one. I'm thinking this is going to run more than just a few hundred bucks from the dealer. It would involve a lot of man hours I think which that is where 90% of this expense will be.

Servo
Having the same issue with driver side servo clicking - seems possessed.
Have had this clicking noise for several years but the thing still works.
Glad to finally see some info on this issue, I thought it was coming from the fuse panel all this time.
