Not sure of the correct name of the motor but there are two located on each side of the center console. The drivers side is in behind the cover panel near the gas pedal, has an electrical connector and a flat plastic "rod" that goes up underneath the dash area. You can pop off the plastic rod at the motor and activate the rod up and down. With the heater on, move the rod up and down. This opens and closes a vent door. See if this is your problem.
I used a potato chip bag "clip" to secure the rod to the cover panel until i can find the motor online or at a "pull-a-part".
Hope this helps, Mick

Engine over heating in a Cadillac catera?
My 1997 Cadillac Catera does the samething! Normally can be done by the Coolant leaking ,Coolant needing to be flushed, a PCV Valve, Coolant Temperature Sensor, Themostat Sticking, oil cooler, and the list goes on. . You should most likely have a "Experienced" Mechanic look at the vehicle to do a pressure test to make sure you dont have any leaks and to see what is actually wrong.
You have no heat coming out of the vents but do have heat at the floor and defroster on a 95 Plymouth neon 2.0liter 5 speed sohc?
Dont know what the problem is but i can tell you its a vacuum leak . the vents are vacuum operated and require air pressure to change between the vents and floor. the defroster is default setting you may have a vacuum line that has come undone but all i know is its somewhere under the dash.

Ignition switch change for 2001 cadillac catera?i've had to replace the steering wheel column, the whole thing is in one piece but your best safest bet is add one to an out of the column b/c to many parts in the column itself.
