Default Ford Hvac/Temp Mechanic Needed

Looking for a trained Ford Mechanic to help me out of a pinch.
I need to replace my Temperature Control Actuator on my Ford F150.
If someone is experienced with this area of the Fords, I'd appreciate hearing from them.

Mr Minnie says I am to PM you his phone number and you can call him if you'd like. He says it will be easier to talk than to type. He's a Ford master tech.

My buddy used to be a ford tech for 5 + years. He has recently branched out on his own. Pm for the number.

A shout out to Minnie's husband who came over several times and was an
incredible help fixing my temperature attenuators in my F150.A really difficult repair removing damn near everything in the front to get at these little modules.
Couldn't have done it without Billy!!

Were you able to do it without moving the dash? Mine is the same set up as yours, there's a YouTube video showing just the console can be removed but it looks pretty tricky

These are failing at a fast rate apparently on 09's and newer!
The passenger side is a lot easier to get at than the drivers side, pretty much not accessible as described in the Youtube video going in between the plastic ducking.You can't pry the ducking enough to get the antennuator out,so you need to remove the lower venting ducks, by removing a screw halfway up the back of the plenum and you will not be able to put it back after if you actually have success getting at it.
The passenger side is easier to get at removing the radio,airbag,phone module,centre electronics console etc.
We replaced both since the project is such a complete teardown, you certainly don't want to do it twice!!
