I have an 07 Ridgeline and the defrost will not work i have lots of heat out of the dash and the buttons will change but will not change sittings

There is a blend door acuator which moves when u change your settings. Its a electric motor. Down under dash, Will need a mech and a heating and cooling diagram to find where the motor is,

under the hood check fuse #4-small lights, it may be going or gone. worked for me!!!!

Hi!!
TO RESET THE MAINTENANCE REMINDER ON HONDA RIDGELINE 07-08 TRUCKS.
1. Turn ignition switch to ON (II) position. 2. Press SELECT button repeatedly until engine oil life display or service message is displayed. 3. Press the RESET button for about 10 seconds.

hello, sounds like the cable broke or, lots of newer veichels use air lines, any way possible, check and see if air lines are still hooked up to the back of the heater controls, should be 4or 5 air lines together, all hook on one place behind heater controlls

Chanses are its either the blend door motor quit working or the controls ( temp., selector, blower) in dash are bad, my 95 did the same thing i chg. the blend door motor thinking it was that, but it turned out to be the controls in the dash, 5 minutes work and 140.00 later it was fixed.

haha

The VTM-4 button will only "lock in" when you have the gear select lever in reverse, D1 or D2. If you accelerate past 18 mph the power levels will shift more to front wheels to reduce damage to rear differential. As far as the heat is concerned, have you set the heat to floor while out of the truck and checked for air flow with your hand? It doesn't seem to hit directly at your feet, more like mid-calf.

You must have a lemon. My 2007 with 40k on it has no issues....Silky smooth
