Re: [DMCForum] Mode swtich/ Air vents won't open



Jim,

The center console vents are NOT supposed to open while switched to
"heater".  It you want hot/warm air blowing from the center console vents
then put it on "vent" and turn the heater control valve to the red area.

The difference between "heater" & "vent" modes is how the air is directed
--
not in their ability to change air temperature.

However, if your center vent isn't opening in any mode then you most
likely
have a vacuum problem.

Try this test: With the engine running turn the fan speed switch all the
way
down (so you can hear what is going on in the dash).  Now turn the mode
switch through all its positions and listen for all the vacuum actuated
flapper doors to move.  If you hear nothing, then you probably have a
vacuum
hose loose in the engine compartment.  If you hear flapper doors moving
but
still no air through the center vents then you probably have a faulty mode
switch or a leaky vacuum actuator.

Let us know what you find,
Walt
