🧭 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.
• Turn control motor until it reaches a convenient position for installation. The direction of rotation can be reversed by interchanging positive and negative.

📋 Procedure

1. ⚠ Risk of injury from knee 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 dash panel trim or knee airbag (driver side) General body repairs, interior68Shelves / trim panels; Removing and installing dash panel trim (driver side).
4. Remove footwell vent (driver side) . [Note: Right-hand drive vehicles: Remove glove box and left footwell vent General body repairs, interior68Shelves / trim panels; Removing and installing glove box.]
5. Remove bolts (arrows).

6. Swivel out temperature flap control motor V68(item 1) behind temperature flap operating shaft (3).
7. Unplug electrical connector (2).
8. Detach control motor. [Note: Check operation of flaps and hinge mechanism before installing.Make sure levers and shafts are seated correctly in actuator sockets.]
9. Position control motor (1) on air distribution housing; gear wheel (2) on control motor must engage in gear wheel (3) at temperature flap lever. [Note: Turn actuator socket in control motor if gear wheels on control motor and temperature flap lever are not opposite one another. Observe notes .The control motor is not positioned correctly on the housing if the bolts cannot be fitted.]
10. Route electrical wiring harness so that it cannot come into contact with moving components (e.g. control motor lever).
11. To check operation of control motor, connect an adapter cable , or use a test lead from adapter setV.A.G 1594C to connect contacts "“5”" and "“6”" of control motor to a 12 V battery via a 5 A fuse. [Note: Turn control motor until it reaches a convenient position for installation. The direction of rotation can be reversed by interchanging positive and negative.]
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.
