Blend Door Repair

Repairing a faulty temperature blend door is no easy task.  Although the replacement part only costs about $35-40, the extensive labor required makes the a service center repair cost around $1,100-1,400.  The service center I visited quoted 11 hours from start to finish for the repair.  An author on another site showing a step-by-step on the repair writes that it takes 24 hours to complete.  A few friends offered to help me with the repair, but I preferred the service center route since I got GM to pay half. 

If you want to do it yourself, here's the step-by-step I mentioned at Handymanlyness:

  3. Mr Pedro recently helped us with a loan which we used to expand our business. The process was amazing! He was in touch with us frequently to check in and to update us on what was happening throughout our loan repayment. He was friendly and approachable and always able to clear up questions that we had. We had such a great experience working with Pedro!!
