I'm having an issue with my 2014 RAM 1500 Tradesman with the 5.7. I've replaced (2) out of the (4) actuators behind the dash (recirc and feet/defrost) and I just recently replaced the control knob cluster out of a wrecked 2018 RAM 1500. Worked when I tested it prior to removal. But now I'm having the same problem. The 'location' control knob seems to not work. I can turn the knob and it won't change where the air is blowing. It almost defaults to the feet everytime. Once in a blue moon it will be defrost (almost every time I don't need it to be defrost). But I'm looking for some guidance.

I did replace the actuator that controls the feet/defrost with a OEM parts, but the other one was not replaced with OEM. It almost seems like a programming issue or like the control knob electronics get zapped or something. Anyone have this issue before and fix it for the long term?
