2. Check operation of Temperature Door by moving the Temperature Selector Lever rapidly back and forth several times. Listen for the door to strike the stop at each end of its travel. If the sound indicates that the door is not fully closing or opening, check the mechanical linkage between the door and the Temperature Selector Lever.
