5.
Hold the blend door frame firmly down against the evaporator case and drill two 5/32" (4 mm) holes as shown in Figure 1. Holding the door frame
firmly in position, install a 5/32" X 3/8" (4 mm X 9.5 mm) pop rivet in each hole.
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE SCREWS. THE SHARP POINT TENDS TO CATCH ON THE DOOR. BE SURE TO USE 5/32", X 3/8" (4 mm X 9.5 mm)
RIVETS. IF A LONGER RIVET IS USED, IT MAY INTERFERE WITH THE BLEND DOOR TRAVEL AND CAUSE FURTHER PROBLEMS.
6.
Run a bead of caulking cord along the underside of the door frame on the side nearest the evaporator core, from one corner to the other.
a.
Be sure to fill the corners.

Use calking cord, Part No. (D6AZ-19560-A), (ESB-M4G32-A) or equivalent.
NOTE:
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO GET A GOOD SEAL BETWEEN THE DOOR FRAME AND THE EVAPORATOR CASE, TO PREVENT AIR
LEAKAGE THROUGH THE HEATER CORE.
NOTE:
DO NOT USE SILICONE OR OTHER TYPES OF SEALANT THAT HAVE STRONG ODORS. THESE ODORS MAY ENTER THE
PASSENGER COMPARTMENT DURING SYSTEM OPERATION.
