2005 S60 2.5T AWD - Heat actuator location?

Post by MarcM »

I've seen references to it, but can't find information on how to get to the actuator to allow heat into air box. Anyone have a reference on how to get to this?
PS: I have a copy of Volvo VIDA service software, but have to roll back a laptop from Ubuntu to Win XP. It almost fubar'd my Win10 machine when I attempted it.

Okay, so it's called a DMM. Found it on my own research. For those who don't know, it's behind the glovebox. Here's how to remove glovebox:

The DMM or "heat damper motor" or "heat actuator" or whatever you want to call it (DMM is official) can be seen in this pic with glovebox removed:

In the image, it's a little square box. It's behind the cable hanging down with foam covering. If replaced, it needs to go on ViDA to calibrate it.
