Why is the air vent on my Ford Ranger not working?

Pulsating air vent. It just randomly does it, even with ignition off having just stopped vehicle, or it does it whilst driving. It’s a muffled low noise knocking. Isolated it to the re circulating switch and stops when you press it on to re circulate air. Bloody irritating. Found it’s a dodgy blend door actuator.
