The Grim Reaper

Center Vent "POP/BANG"fix

Page was last updated: 12.05.02

Here's a view of the center vent trap door without the das installed. This is the culprit that sounds like a .22 caliber gun being fired when it decides to unstick itself when adjustinng them to flow for VENT or AC. What happens is the adhesive from the gasket seeps out over time and eventually tries to glue the trap door shut. What I did was clean out both surfaces really good and then applied white grease on both sealing surfaces.

This view shows door closed

The door pivots up when you go from vent to AC

Here's a view with the door pivoted in to open position. Clean the sealing surfaces and then use white lithium grease to keep them from sticking together.
