Was it a Motorcraft part? Might be DOA, even if Motorcraft, just curious. Can you pull it out, plug in the connector, and see if it moves at all when you turn on the ignition? Given the way mine clicked, I think they do a sweep when ignition is turned to "on", before starting, to like set...
Ok this mystery must be solved.
I can say for 100% certain that the top center blend door motor, that is accessed by removing (or at least unbolting and sliding back) the center console, center stack cover, and nav display (I guess radio if no nav) to get the front screw and through the glove...

The wire loom will blend right in with the rest once I get some filth on it:
At least...
Very nice!! I couldn't resist and used my sunroof once just to see if it worked, luckily it did and I haven't touched it since haha! Is the Dr Sunroof a permanent fix for the weak link you think?
Good plan heh, offroad is a great way to learn though! Those seats do go ridiculously close to the dash, pedals adjust...just sayin'. Let us know when you get your hands on it!!
She looks great!!! Funny how it's just as sunny in MN lol! Just not as green or warm I'll wager. God help you if you have a daughter haha, will she get to drive it?!!
Very nice, appreciate the pictures and explanation! I'm in the "someday, maybe" camp, so any point of reference or input is a good thing if it happens :cheers:
