Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I removed the trim piece underneath the vent and the the two trim pieces on the end of the dash to gain access to the wire disconnect under the dash.

The plastic two in front have to be lifted up, I used two picks to lift them, and two metal clips behind which need to be lifted as well.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

Does anyone know how to remove he entire interior air vent assemblies from the dash? Thanks in advance.

POST 2Original post

hi beach987, did you ever figure out how to remove the vents? A piece of mine broke off and I need to take the vent out to fix it... thanks. Jeff

POST 3Original post

It's not an easy job. I think you need to dismantle the entire front dash board.

POST 4Original post

Came across this thread in a search. The little fork that attaches to the back of the slider in my passenger side center came adrift--now, I can move the vertical vanes inside from side to side, but I cannot move horizontal vanes that sit behind up and down. Looks like it would be an easy fix once you got the dashboard trim off, but I've got no idea how to do that. Anyone run into this problem?

POST 5Original post

If you are talking about the vertical piece that connects the slats, and it has not fallen off completely, take a paperclip, straigten it out, then put a little hook on one end and fish it back in place. Have a lot of patience (I think it took me almost an hour when I knocked it off cleaning out the vents) and be careful not to scratch the slats with the paperclip. You have to line up all the slats, so you may need a tooth pick or something similar to help with that. Good luck. A small piece of insulated wire may work too.............

POST 6Original post

I have a serious need to replace the two front center vents (the previous owner somehow broke a chunk of plastic off the bottom edge of both of them) has anyone figured out how to remove them? Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk

POST 7Original post

I removed the driver side vent today. There is a springy plastic clip on the inside top that you press up on and 4 clips on the bottom inside. The plastic two in front have to be lifted up, I used two picks to lift them, and two metal clips behind which need to be lifted as well. After pressing the upper clip and lifting the two front lower clips I was able to pull it forward just a bit. I then used the picks to lift on the two rear lower clips and the vent came out. I removed the trim piece underneath the vent and the the two trim pieces on the end of the dash to gain access to the wire disconnect under the dash.
