Default Anyone know what module this is...

So I've had this noise coming from my dash for the past 2 days. I don't know if it has to do with my radio/nav but I snooped around a bit. It seems like the noise is coming from this module. Can anyone identify it and what does it controls?


Took the bottom of the dash panel off. Just showing so you have more of an idea of where this module is located.


Here it is hiding behind the vent outlined in red.

It looks like one of the A/C servos. Check this thread:

Thanks for the input fellas. That link looks like that's exactly what it is. Seems pretty pricey for that part but what else would you expect being a Lexus part. I haven't been using the car's heat or ac so I couldn't tell you if it was the wrong temp at all. Doesn't seem that hard to change but working under the dash upside down is a B.

yeah i do. its the drivers side servo motor. i been to lazy to do my drivers side since its summer right now but i already did my passenger side and will do this one soon. i promise this one will be SO much easier to do then the passenger side was.
i think i might attach this to my DIY someone showed you earlier so people know the placement of the drivers side one

thanks
