Fan Control...???

Here's my issue: When selecting the fan control from Defrost to any other setting there is no change in airflow. Regardless of the selector position the airflow only will come out of the Defrost vents.

Any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated.

Aaron

Vacuum leak somewhere. If it's all the time it could be an unplugged vac line on the heater valve or a dead pump, if it's intermittent or tied to using 4x4 it could be a leaking hub seal, broken hub line, or a bad pulse lock solenoid.

I'd be checking the lines at the vacuum pump motor on passenger fender.

I'd be checking for power and ground to the vacuum pump if it's not working.
