most vehicles use a vacuum diaphragm to move the mode door inside the dash from the floor to the vents to the windshield. Either the vacuum diaphragm is leaking or the vacuum hose has become disconnected. In my 85 topaz the door pannel vents are used to defrost the side windows.

Why does your air only blows out the front vents and not the floor are defrost on your 2003 dodge ram?

This is the same on all cars. When the air flow is OFF in a section, the it blows stronger to the other vents. In this case the ones for the windshield. This makes defrosting quicker so you can start driving safely sooner.

Why doesn't the defrost work on my Chevy venture van?

Hi, There are a couple of possibilities here. If you are not getting any air flow at all near the front windshield, then you probably have something blocking the vents or the doors that control the air flow are not working. If you have air flow, but it is taking a "long time" for the defroster to do its job, then the AC compressor is probably not working. The compressor is used in defrost mode so that it will dehumidify the air that blows on the windshield. If that doesn't work, then it can take quite a while for the defroster to work. Good Luck, Greg
