3. Attach the damper link to the output shaft (see “Install Damper Link” illustration).
NOTE: The damper link MUST be installed correctly. If the damper link is not installed correctly, the damper will not operate
properly. The damper will move between half open and half closed and it will be impossible to adjust the damper properly.
4. Attach the damper motor bracket to the evaporator blower housing. Tighten the mounting hardware enough to hold the
damper motor bracket in place, but do not completely tighten the mounting hardware.
5. Push the damper motor and bracket assembly up so it is positioned as high as possible in the evaporator blower housing.
6. Assemble the ball joint link. Set the length between the ball joint centers at 57 mm and make sure that the centers are
approximately parallel.
7. Attach one end of the ball joint link to the damper door bracket with a stainless steel screw, spacer washers, and a Nylock nut.
Use the spacer washers as required to center the ball joint link in the damper door bracket.
