For the Chevy Impala, the bolt size for the blend door actuator is 5/32. This actuator is a compact electric motor equipped with sensors linked to your vehicle's climate control system. When you modify the temperature or airflow intensity, the signals travel through this actuator. Symptoms of a malfunctioning blend door actuator can include hearing a ticking noise from the dashboard upon starting the car or experiencing issues like the heater blowing cold air or the AC blowing hot air. A common cause of actuator failure is the breakage of a fragile plastic gear set.

    I just removed the one located next to the radio inside the glove compartment of my 2012 Impala. The fitting socket size is 5.5mm, which I believe is the equivalent of 5/32 inches.

    For my 2011 Impala, I used a 7/32, but it was a little loose. A 5.5mm is probably the right size.

    Could you identify which actuator is malfunctioning? It seems to be located near the glove compartment. My car is a 2008 model.

    It’s 2022, and it’s still at 5.5mm, which is pretty funny!
