2002 Trailblazer has intermittent popping in left side of dash , to the right of steering column. GM tsb leads to replacing mode door actuator, but says special puller required. epair dont show any illustrations. Anyone been there, can it be replaced w/o the special puller. Thanks.

The special puller allows replacement of the mode door actuator without removal of the dash assembly. Tool is worth the cost. Something about 150-160 dollars. Kent Moore Tool only, at least so far.
