You get mad at people for not "searching", but now you get mad at people for not searching "good enough." Have some manners man. Clearly all the guy needed was a few minutes of people's time.

i looked these up for a GS400 just to prove they are used on all models and took screen shots of ALL 4 servos showing comparability with all models and even went the extra step and took a picture with all 4 showing price and part #'s. oh yeah my last rambling thought in my head...if i have a 2001 GS430 and i listed the part #'s i used.....why wouldn't they be compatible with your 2001 GS430? Before you say you didn't know i had a 2001 GS430 all you had to do was a little behind the scene leg work and you would know what year/model my car is without having to make a new thread. You could have also just asked this in your first thread.....or you could have just bumped my thread and asked if these would work on your 2001 GS430.

so for my last post ever to you, i give you a gift of visual pics

Please, I have 1 last question. First off, lemme start by saint I did not know the driver side had 2 servos as well. I only thought there was a total of 3. So what I'm asking is this, please go over this info with me and lemme know if I'm correct out if I'm going the wrong way.

I'm just looking to change the same servo you changed in your DIY which is the one not next to the CD box but the one planned on the left inner dash. You know... And the main driver one which is the one you ASSUMED you had to take the whole dash and cluster out for... So is 8710630351 that main one in the driver side? And is 8710630341 the one you replaced in your DIY? If so, if I am correct so far, please confirm that these other 2 are as stated: 8710630390 (Fresh/Air Recirculation) is the servo on the passenger side right next to CD box, the one you didn't replace in your DIY. And is 8710630371 the other servo I had no clue about located in the driver side somewhere???...

If I'm correct my friend please lemme know. If I have some part #s mixed up, also please lemme know. I know your the man for this. I just wanna get it all right. Can't afford to order wrong parts. Please lemme know which one is which. Again, Sakataj I deeply appreciate all your help. You've been a coach. Please, no hard feelings.

Way to be humbling and patient. I will help by sharing my experience. I didn't know which servos were which, but my defrost/vent switching servo was not behaving correctly (would auto switch to defrost on 85 and ignored the 'modes' I was on) so I began by pulling all the servos out. The benefit of this was that I was able to physically read which servo had which part number. IIRC, it was printed on the servo. ALSO, it gave me the chance to open them and regrease them. If you pop open the servo you can see the 'working area' it uses. I used a q-tip to remove all the old, contaminated grease. Then I took clean grease that was on the 'non-working' area and moved it back to where the pins are actually sliding over. If this is confusing, what I am trying to say is that if you open it up, you can see a bunch of extra grease that is untouched in the servo. Wipe off the visually dirty grease and move the clean grease back where the dirty grease is. Now, here is where things got weird for me. There are two wire harness clips on the passenger side for the two separate servo motors. It's pretty obvious where they go. One is significantly longer than the other. They do have the exact same clip, so you can get them backwards. When I hooked everything up, exactly as it came out (took pictures and everything before pulling out) it still behaved weird (FAR better, but still odd). I finally, in a last ditch attempt, tugged the F out of the shorter wire harness to get it to reach the further servo and shoved back the longer wire to clip it in to the nearer servo. This was OBVIOUSLY wrong and not the way it came.... But I ran the A/C test and EVERYTHING worked perfect.... Still puzzles me.

ANYWHO!! Try just popping the servos out and regreasing them. The labor and parts are free and you can visually identify with the part numbers. I'm going strong over 1 year on those servos and several other members have done this with great success. If you need additional information, just post back and I, or someone else, would be more than happy to help.
