What's up guys I guess the Titans have the same problems as the Silverados do as my Silverado had the same actuator problem. My "mode" setting(when changing from defrost to like face it clicks) I know that one and that's it's by the gas pedal. But I'm now getting clicking on the right middle of the dash. Removed the glove box to put a finger on the actuator that controls the recirculating door and it's not that one that's clicking as I hear the clicking noise while I touch that actuator. It sounds like it's coming from an area on the right side of the radio dash area. What actuator is there? All my controls still work fine except when I switch the mode then that actuator clicks so i have to get a part number for that one so I can switch it out. But what about this other one ?

Yeah I've read that thread. But I went to the Nissan dealership and on their computer it showed like 5 actuators in the schematics picture. But it's hard to believe there's more than three. So most likely my temp control is the new one acting up ?

Damn that does not look fun. So basically I just have to pop the arm back onto that pin?

Hmmm that's a way I'm willing to try rather than taking the dash off. It hasn't clicked these past two days not sure why. Do all the acuators have the same part number?

I believe there are two different part numbers for all the actuators. I two have had to replace the one under the dash. It's not a fun job, but I did manage to do it without taking the dash completely apart. I will double check in the part # here in a little bit for you

27743NA is the one I bought when I replaced mine.
So this is the one that's inside the dash next to the stereo area? I keep reading it's the temperature actuator. My temperature works fine no matter where I put it, it just clicks randomly and is very annoying so I'm trying to get that one replaced asap and do it once too lol.

The defroster one by the gas pedal should be easy to find and buy as it's the mode door actuator. But in the schematics all the actuators show the same part number?

Update, got both the mode door actuator (controls what vent settings) and the temperature actuator(controls switching from cold to hot) done. my temp actuator still worked fine it was just occasionally starting to click randomly here and there and since I drive my truck daily for work it was starting to get annoying. I tried doing it through the glove box area like in the video but I'm just not flexible enough and my forearm didn't let me stick my hand far enough. But I think it CAN be done that way with small hands/forearms. I had to removed the dash took hours. It sucked!!! Neither have clicked since! Used Nissan OEM parts for both actuators.

If you guys tackle this just a heads up, since you have to remove the odometer and still turn the ignition on to have the actuator move so it can line up to the original ones position you will get a service engine soon light on as I did I got scared and scanned them and they were super random and weird codes that had to do with electrical. One even said unknown code and I think it's was like n00001 lol. All I did was turn the truck back off disconnected the negative side again waited about two minutes then reconnected to make sure I connected the ground right and the light went away. And you'll have to reset the airbag light from removing the clip and the airbag. I removed the negative side of the battery before disconnecting the airbag.
