Detailed Description

This Dorman HVAC air door actuator kit is built for vehicles that need precise control of cabin airflow and temperature routing. It is designed for applications such as Lexus ES300h, Lexus ES350, Toyota Avalon, Toyota Camry, Toyota Sienna, Toyota Venza, and Toyota Highlander, including 2010-2013 Toyota Highlander, wo/Rear HVAC, and 2011-2012 Toyota Venza, Core Package. The ADAKIT007 part number is also useful when searching for OE-style replacement coverage for HVAC door control concerns on these platforms.

Package contents include a mode door actuator, a recirculation door actuator, and blend door actuators for the listed applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Restoring temperature blend control when air stays too hot or too cold
• Correcting airflow direction problems between floor, vent, and defrost modes
• Repairing recirculation door operation when fresh air and recirculated air do not switch properly
• Addressing HVAC clicking, binding, or inconsistent actuator movement
• Replacing worn actuator components on Lexus ES300h, Lexus ES350, Toyota Avalon, Toyota Camry, Toyota Sienna, Toyota Venza, and Toyota Highlander applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s HVAC configuration before ordering, especially on 2010-2013 Toyota Highlander models without rear HVAC and 2011-2012 Toyota Venza Core Package applications. Confirm connector style, terminal count, and mounting points against the original part before installation. Because mounting hardware and wiring harness are not included, reuse or source the required vehicle-specific components as needed. For best results, clear HVAC fault codes and test mode, blend, and recirculation operation after installation.

Quality Assurance

Dorman designs this actuator kit for specified vehicle applications and uses a vehicle-focused fitment approach to help ensure proper HVAC door control on the listed Lexus and Toyota models. ADAKIT007 is intended as a direct replacement-style solution for the covered applications.
