Default 2001 RX300 air servo

It appears that my air servo is malfunctioning. I'm getting the non stop clicka clicka clicka sound from the dash. I don't want to try to fix it or clean it, I want to buy a replacement.

Can someone verify the part number for me?

You need to determine which one it is. There are two right next to each other. If you pull the glove box you should be able to see the one that is twitching. Then we can confirm the correct part #..

Stolen picture:


Long story short, the top one in the pic is definitely busted in my car. It got smashed a bit and the case is broken open. The clickity clickity sound it used to make changed after that happened and it makes a weird whispy noise now.

Thank you. It looks like it's pretty easy to swap out as long as I get the white air tube thing out of the way first. Sound about right?

Yep, I replaced that one not too long ago. It's not a bad job. If I remember correctly, getting the glove box out was the hardest part.

Awesome. I have the glovebox out already while waiting for the new part to ship to my house.

Thank you for your help.

Finally got around to getting this done last Saturday.

Was pretty easy. Thanks for the info.

Now my air isn't stuck on the defrost vents.

Of course, now that I have that fixed, I can hear a little bit of chatter like as if the other servo is starting to go out. It's quiet and faint and sounds similar to the air mode servo when it started going bad.

I'll have to open it back up and check to make sure but can anyone provide/verify the part number for the air mix servo please?
