Summary
Some 2025-2026 F-Super Duty vehicles built on 10-Jun-2025 and through 11-Aug-2025 may exhibit the passenger side register not blowing cold air when commanded. This may be due to the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) module calibration of the actuator. Download and run the "HVAC - Climate Control System Actuators Calibration" application with the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System (FDRS) and retest. If the concern remains, refer to the Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 412-00 for normal diagnostics. For claiming use causal part 19980 and labor operations 12651D and 12651D4.
