Intent and perception are independent of each other and if, as you claim, you didn't mean to be argumentative, then please add smilies!

My wife tells me I can be a bit vague sometimes LOL Just because it makes sense to me doesnt always mean others know what I am talking about.

I'd say you probably have a bad EMTC (control head).

The workshop manual has a long, drawn out manual diagnostic procedure to pinpoint faults. Unless you want to guess about the fault, a technician probably needs to follow that diagnostic process.

I went out and pulled the mode motor off, I turned the system on and the motor turned, I also pulled the actuator cam off and moved the arms manually. They both moved freely and both had a nice solid thud at stop. I put it all back together and it made no difference, still no control over airflow direction. I will buy a switch and motor and see what I get.
If anyone has any input feel free to pass it along.

Ok so I finally got around to replacing the mode motor, this controls the direction of airflow, now I can select which direction the heat comes out. Problem solved.
