: B0361 (left actuator feedback short to ground) and B0441 (left actuator feedback to ground)

I have had these before. Both singularly as well as together.
I think it might require removal of the dash in some fashion to replace the actuator or to fix them.
Even though I have had the codes. My a/c has never failed to operate correctly. I have cleared the codes and they have returned occasionally, still without the A/C syst failing to operate correctly.
By operating correctly I mean the cooling works, changing temp from hot to cold and in heating changing temp from hot to cool. I have the dual set up and both sides work without a problem.
Since it would be hard to fix, I'm just going to wait until the syst. fails to work.
I check codes regularly even when I am not having any indication of problems.
So when the A/C failes to operate, then I will take what ever action I need to fix it. If it were easier to troubleshoot or fix I might do more indepth troubleshooting.
Since the A/C syst. is operating without problems I'm not inclined to tear into the dash.
Just my view, if not broke don't fix it, especially if the cure might be worse than the fix.

I would clear the code and see if returns, If your A/C works in all modes, then you need to decide if it really indicates a failure or just a glitch in the computer communications. Which is what I think mine is, I don't get the codes all the time.
