The blend door actuator in your 2011 Chevrolet Equinox is usually found inside the car cabin, mounted on the driver's side of the center dashboard, located behind the kick panel near where the driver's right foot would normally be. Although the process of replacing it is relatively straightforward, you'll have to remove several trim panels to access it effectively. This is where the trouble often arises, unfortunately, as these actuators frequently fail due to their plastic teeth design. A faulty actuator might produce a distinct clicking noise and cause inconsistent air temperature. If you decide to replace it, expect to spend anywhere from $30 to $100 on the new part, depending on the specific configuration and the brand or quality you opt for.
