Where are the other two servo's under the shifter?
So i replaced the air mode servo due to not being able to switch the air off defrost. Fixed that. Now i believe there is another one that needs replaced, i can hear it clicking, it sounds like some sort of servo, like the others, but its not really loud like the other one was when it went out. but it just kinda keeps clicking, over and over, it sounds like its right underneath the shifter **** location I cant really find anything on any other servos but just the two under the glove box. Anyone have any info on these?

Maxsteel is correct. The air mix servo is next to the mode servo. It makes a noise like a gerbil on a running wheel when it is malfunctioning. This is due to the grease inside the servo getting contaminated with the carbon from the gear contacts that wear out over time and it continues to hunt for a position based on electrical resistance values that it cannot find due to the contamination. You can remove the servo, open it up and clean the dirty grease from the surfaces, add clean grease, put it back together and reinstall, and it should work for years more, unless you have worn completely thru the carbon layer. You can also buy a new one to replace it as the easier option. I did the cleaning method over five years ago and it still works.

Also, been doing just came across this, there seems to be another servo, this website lists 3 servos,
a "air mix servo"
a "air mode servo"
and just a "damper servo"

Anyone know what the third one is? or where it is located?

Ok I was at the junk yard a few days ago, picked up a few things, while i was there, both servos were just sitting in the front seat. So I went ahead and grabbed the mix servo for 7 bucks.
