You have a vacuum line disconnected probably under the hood. The HVAC controls are operated by vacuum and when there is no vacuum it system goes into defrost mode.
You have a vacuum leak somewhere. Check under the hood for a disconnected or broken vacuum line.
most likely your heater controls run via vacuum lines. cracked or broken lines could cause this.
It's a vacuum leak somewhere in the system. There are several vacuum lines that operate the blend doors on the system. If there is a leak where the system will not hold vacuum, it will default to defrost automatically.
you probabally have a vacuum hose disconnected
The various functions are controlled by engine vacuum,defrost being the default without vacuum. Look far a damaged or loose vacuum line starting from the function switch,through the reservoir,to the engine vacuum port.
Most likely a bad or disconnected vacuum hose to the defrost/floor selector in the heater ducting.
My guess is that you have a vacuum supply problem. Most HVAC systems operate off of a vacuum and if the vacuum supply is cut off the system goes to defrost by default, your most important function. Check under the hood for a cracked or pinched vacuum hose.
Make sure you have vacuum coming into the cab from the engine. There may be something wrong with the switches.
Many cars use engine vacuum to operate HVAC controls. If vacuum is cut off the system defaults to the defrost mode. Check the HVAC vacuum supply hose under the hood leading from the engine. It may be disconnected or damaged.
Don't know what vehicle you have but most HVAC controls operate from a vacuum supply from the engine. I would start with checking the vacuum supply connections under the hood. They could be cracked or disconnected.
There is a 1 way vacuum check valve in the eng compartment it is either disconnected or the valve is bad. comes of of the brake booster,thin vacuum line that goes into the vehical
