Default I need help!!!

I need to remove the passenger side actuator from the hvac system on my 2000 C5, I did a search but no luck.I tried looking for the actuator but I can't get to it or even find it. Can anyone that owns service manuals help me out or scan some pics and email them to me???I'm going on a trip from Kentucky to Kansas in mid July and I don't want my wife to burn up,I'd appreciate any help thanks!

p.s. I already tried pulling all the fuses, disconnecting the battery and recharging the freon, NO luck.

Installation Procedure




Position the RH temperature valve electric actuator, then align the slots in the electric actuator driver to the flats on the RH temperature valve shaft.

Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

Part # is 89018365. It is the same for the right and left sides. Unfortunately, the info that I am giving you is off the web and I don't have any other way to send them to you. If you need anything else please feel free to ask. RICH
