heater wont blow through vent

Hey guys. I'm freezing my ***** off every morning. I hear the blower motor kick on but there is not air coming out of the vents. I did some research and I think it might be the door stuck closed. Wondering if someone can someone guide me through this? Thanks!

Vacuum leak. Check vacuum lines. Been discussed many times.

Is yours the AAC Auto Climate Control, or manual? If it's manual, it's cake, auto it's a bit more complicated as there are many more vacuum lines.

If the fan kicks on, but only blows through defrost, then there is a vacuum leak and it's likely the two supply lines going between the control box and the vacuum tank. The stock lines are prone to cracking.

No vacuum = default to defrost.

Again, been discussed in detail many many many times.

Merged w/ your previous thread asking the same question...

For the ACC, both lines go to the vacuum tank by the engine bay light. Do you only use the internet on your phone or do you have access to a computer? Because you can download the FSM and look at the vacuum diagrams...
