Default I have AC again...

Well I replaced the left blend door actuator on my car yesterday, It took me maybe 3 hours total with a lot of breaks in between, Got it all back together and works great.
Here is the bad part, I noticed later that night that I had no brake lights, But the 3rd light was working, I started to think about this and then it came to me....... I forgot to plug in the 4 way flasher switch...lol
Well I got home and pulled the console and radio and was able to reach up there and get it plugged back in.. Now all is good to go...

Just curious to learn more about the problem... when you had this problem, were you getting AC out of one vent and total hot air out of the other. I believe this is a symptom of the problem I had a while back.
