WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford F-550 Super Duty, 2018 Ford F-450 Super Duty, 2018 Ford F-350 Super Duty, and 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The air inlet door actuator contains a reversible electric motor and a potentiometer. The potentiometer allows the FCIM to monitor the position of the airflow mode door. The FCIM drives the actuator motor in the direction necessary to move the door to the position set by the recirculation button and when the MAX A/C, Defrost or MAX Defrost buttons are selected.
