The flapper motor servo is on the driver's side of the heater box under the 
plenum cover. It's easiest accessed by removing the wiper arms, then the plenum 
cover, then the little white plastic cover over it. I think those run about 
$80, I sometimes get the error codes for that but contact cleaner fixed it for 
a while and I have yet to experience consistent temperature problems. Just one 
blast of cold air in the face last winter is all.
