Ac vent problems

Asked by Nick Jul 30, 2019 at 07:21 AM about the 2010 Ford F-150 XLT

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Every time I turn on my truck my vents cycle.
It starts on front facing, goes to defrost, then
to floor, then back to face. Could this be a
vacuum issue or a blend door actuator? And
just recently it doesn’t seem like my MAX A/C
does anything when I turn it on.

Sounds like a blend door actuator. The actuator is an electric motor that controls the blend door. Vacuum is not used to control the blend doors on your F150. The problem could also be the panel control that tells the actuator what to do, but most likely it is the actuator itself.
