Does anyone know what's needed to replace the whole rear heating and A/C assembly hidden behind the passenger side panel on the Ext. Trailblazer? When we bought the truck it wasn't working, so I loosened the 4 screws to pop off the panel to inspect the actuators and I noticed the power connector going to the assembly was disconnected and we noticed one of the actuators was missing as was the plastic piece that's connected to what I'm assuming is the internal blend doors. I see why they disconnected it since I can only assume it was broken off from an attempted repair. I do have a whole new assembly pulled from a totaled Ext. Trailblazer, there are a few bolts and I think quick connect HVAC (?) lines right above the resonator into the assembly from underneath the truck.
I guess my biggest concern is, are there any guides to doing this, what fuses if any need to be pulled, and does the rear actuators need to be re calibrated, or anything else I should know before I start pulling this sucker out. It doesn't seem too difficult, but it doesn't seem like something that's been replaced on these trucks either. I know the actuators are fairly common to go.
Grabbed an image of it off Google.
