I have been reading on the forum about the HVAC actuators requiring calibration after installation.
My Sky with 120,000 miles and 4 previous owners, I don't know if my climate control actuators were ever replaced, but I wonder if the air-temperature one needs calibration. When I ask for cold a/c air, I get cold air, very cold air as I would expect. If I leave the dial to the far left and turn off the a/c system, I get ambient air from the outside as I would expect. That is all very good, just right, no complaints.
BUT..............
When I turn the temperature dial toward the right to warm the incoming air a little, the temperature quickly gets hot. The adjustment is not linear. It goes from ambient air to hot air with a minor change in the position of the dial.
Is this normal for a Sky? Or do I need to calibrate the air-blending actuator.
Just to be clear, the air selection dial from Defrost to Floor to Vents and in between works great, no problem there.
