UPDATE: Got the new blend door motor in, thanks @AllMoparParts.com, and installed and the problem is fixed. Had to stand on my head in the drivers side footwell to find it as it is hidden behind the duct work for the floor vents. Three torx screws and the electrical connection is all it takes to change it out. Hope this helps someone in the future.

Having issues with the drivers side temp control, it blows hot air no matter the setting. The passenger side works as it should.
Does anyone know which blend door actuator controls this and have the part number?

edit: I think it is this one as there are two of them in the parts diagram.

Thank you!!! About to order the part now. Any insight on how you got back to it would be helpful as well!

The temp control motors are near the bottom edge of the dash, on the drivers side pull the knee panel and the floor air duct to access it. On the passenger side pull the glove box and the floor air duct.

The white gear comes off the old motor and goes on the new one, it is keyed so it only goes on one way. Just be sure the “park” the blend door before attaching the motor, the gears should mesh up and the ends should be close together, you’ll see once you have it apart what I mean.

I know this is an old thread, but perhaps the only one I've seen for the driver's side. I can see the actuator behind the ductwork. Did you remove the ductwork to get to it? I'm having a heck of a time figuring out how to actually get to the part to remove it!

Thank you. I ended up finishing this today. I had seen that but was initially confused because my 2018 JLUR doesn't quite look like this. In my case there is some type of control module (I didn't bother looking close enough to determine what it was) that is in the way. 4 screws removed later and I was able to push that out of the way and access the push pin to remove the vent. Of course continuing the stand on my head I was able to get the actuator removed and replaced. Like most Jeep projects this was harder than it should have been!
