🧭 Before you start

Fits: platform code FV

Don't miss

• Check operation of flaps and hinge mechanism before installing.Make sure levers and shafts are seated correctly in actuator sockets.
• If the actuator socket and pin are not opposite one another, the socket in the control motor must be turned. Observe notes .

🔩 Torque settings

Values can differ between engine variants — check the code stamped on your block.

ℹ️ Always cross-check the exact figure against your vehicle's factory manual before final tightening — a wrong torque can damage the engine. These values are extracted from workshop data and may not cover every variant or revision.

📋 Procedure

1. ⚠ Risk of injury from airbag.Before working in the vicinity of pyrotechnic components, the mechanic must "“discharge static electricity”". Observe the safety precautions for working on airbags General body repairs, interior00Safety precautions; Safety precautions when working on pyrotechnic components. — Switch off ignition.
2. Equipment version with ignition lock: Remove ignition key.
3. Remove glove box General body repairs, interior68Shelves / trim panels; Removing and installing glove box.

4. Remove the dash panel support (4) (tightening torque for bolts: 3 Nm)General body repairs, interior70Dash panel; Exploded view - dash panel. — 3 Nm (2.2 lb-ft)
5. Remove bolts (1).

6. Detach control motor for right side window defroster flap V410(2) from the air duct.
7. Unplug electrical connector (3). [Note: Check operation of flaps and hinge mechanism before installing.Make sure levers and shafts are seated correctly in actuator sockets.]
8. The actuator socket in the control motor (1) can only be fitted onto the pin (2) in one position. [Note: If the actuator socket and pin are not opposite one another, the socket in the control motor must be turned. Observe notes .]
9. Position control motor on pin (2), making sure it engages in the actuator socket (1).
10. Insert bolts (1) (tightening torque: 1 Nm). [Note: If the actuator socket on the control motor and the gear wheel on the flap lever are not opposite one another, the socket in the control motor must be turned. Observe notes .If the bolts cannot be placed in position, the control motor is not fully seated on the housing, e.g. the actuator socket on the control motor cannot stand correctly.] — 1 Nm (0.7 lb-ft)
11. Lay the electrical wiring harness such that it cannot come into contact with moving components.
12. Install remaining components.
13. Interrogate event memory and erase any entries displayed; then perform "“Basic setting”" ("“Guided Fault Finding”").
14. As a final step, check operation of heater/air conditioner.
