Any ideas/s= uggestions.< This sounds like a bad mode switch. The airflow in the ventilation system is controlled by vacuum actuators. The actuators are controlled by the mode switch in the dash. There is a portion of the switch that is sealed with a silicone grease that eventually dries out and causes erratic operation of the ventilation system.
