2012 Rear AC Keeps Switching to Feet Only


Recommended Posts

I have a 2012 Journey and everything works fine except the rear AC.  If I set it to only do overhead, it switches to feet only.  I change it on the touch screen and it goes back to feet.  I use the rear control knobs and I watch it switch back to feet on the screen.  If I hit the lock button fast enough it’ll stay, but that’s very annoying.  Any ideas?

HVAC flow controlled by actuators (electrical switches) in the dash. Plastic internal gears start to stick and wear out. At least one of the 5-6 units is probably flaky. Some hard to get at behind plastic panels.  Parts not that pricy,  but because awkward access labor would be more than you think. One plug and a few Philips screws. Need to unhook battery or have someone with programmer hook up the sensors.  Make sure elect plug pins match in replacement part. OEM china switches are better than cheapo aftermarket ones. Free advice worth everything you pay for it.
