It doesnt matter what i do. It still only comes out the front vents. I was thinking maybee a hose was disconnected but i looked under there and everything seems to be fine.

Check the vacuum ball mounted on your hood, make sure the lines are attached and not cracked..

Re: cant switch vent

Well im from Arkansas and we call everything coke. Doesnt make any sense does it... Anyways, i havent spilled anything down there. Im wondering if maybee there is a switch or fuse under the hood that has gone out. I just figured that there was someone else out there with a similar problem. Any input helps...

Re: cant switch vent

Do you think you could post the year of your vehicle? Not every Blazer uses vacuum to control the vents.

Re: cant switch vent

Vaccum leak, check all vacuum lines going to the control panel all the way to the vacum ball in the engine bay.

Vacuum leak.

You brakes run off of vacuum too.

You need to trace all vacuum lines and check for leaks and splits.
