I'm sorry to inform you that there is no way to reset the blend door actuator in the 2012 Ford Fusion. It is a common issue because the internal gears are made of plastic as a safeguard to prevent damage to costly components. When the gears break, you may hear a loud clicking sound from the dash. The positive aspect is that it is a relatively affordable and quick repair. If you decide to do it yourself, you can expect to spend between $45 and $65 on a replacement part. Alternatively, if you prefer to have a professional handle it, the total cost, including parts and labor, is typically between $85 and $105.
To reinitialize the blend door actuator on a 2012 Ford Fusion, follow these steps: First, calibrate the actuator by taking out fuse 15 for 30 seconds, turning on the car for 30 seconds, then putting the fuse back and turning on the car for 30 seconds. Next, disconnect the blend door actuator and manually switch the blend door to the cold setting.
