96 EB A/C problem

I know this post is probably somewhere else on here, but I couldn't find it. I have a 96 EB and the A/C blows out of the Defrog vents, not the dash. Nothing comes out of the dash on any settings. I've been told it's a vacuum leak, but I've checked under the hood, and all is good. Is it under the dash somewhere? If so, what do I need to be looking for? Thanks

Look for the white vacuum hose running from the damper motor near the passenger side hood hinge to into the wiring harness. It runs into the harness at the same place as a black one.

Thanks for the help. I chased the vacuum lines down in the cab, and it turns out that a couple of the nipples on the back of the selector swich were broken off, causing my vacuum leak. I've disconnected the damper flap manually so it will blow out of the vents till I find a replacement switch. Thanks again.
