Ok, on my 99 Cherokee Sport I found that the vacuum lines along the inside of the passenger side inside fender wall to the Cruise Vacuum Module. The line continues on into the grill area and ends. On mine the end was open, causing a severe vacuum leak! Plug the end of the line and the cruise, A/C, heater, etc. all work fine when you accelerate. I don't know why the factory overlooked this?
AnswerI've heard that you can add a vacuum canister in the line to act as a reservoir when extra vacuum is needed. AnswerThis occurs because the climate control doors(that direct the ventilation in the car) are vacuum operated, using intake manifold vacuum. The default(no vacuum) position directs the air to the defrost outlets. When you accelerate, the manifold vacuum drops below that required to operate the doors, and whatever you've got the temp set at blows out of the defrost. When you take your foot off the pedal, (or release the cruise control) the vacuum quickly recovers and the ventilation returns to normal. This is a design flaw, as far as I can tell, there is no fix. AnswerCould also be a vacuum leak. same thing happened to me on my Cherokee (xj) a while back AnswerWhile this might not be correct for your Jeep, I'll offer it anyway. On my Dodge van, there is a vacuum check valve in the line which feeds the climate controls. If it leaks, the controls will follow the engine vacuum and air will come out the defroster on acceleration. The idea is that since the climate control lines should be static and non-leaking, the manufacturer can use the lines and manifold as its own reservoir during periods of low vacuum.Vacuum leak
There may be several reasons why the air only blows out the front vents and not on the floor or the defrost on the 2003 Dodge Ram. The fuses may be blown, or the heating coil is not working correctly.
you need to replace the vacuum.
When there is a problem in the vent system it defaults to defrost setting. Check the doors & vac supply
The AC does not blow on the main front vents. Only rear and defrost.
Because you have a vacuum leak in the system or your vacuum canister is leaking. When you accelerate the vacuum from the engine will drop. That will cause your system to loose vacuum and the floor/defrost door will go to its neutral position. To keep the vacuum up you have a canister that will hold vacuum. It must be air tight.
Check for vacuum leak either under the hood or under the dash Check the operation of the vacuum actuators Check the selector switch Defrost is the default setting on this system
ITS THE VACCUM ADVANCE WHEN YOU ACCELERATE THE VACCUM IS LEAKING WHEN YOU RESUME SPEED THE A/C REACTS NORMAL CHECK VACCUM HOSE LEAKS
It sounds like your vacuum controls are stuck on the defroster I had that happen and I sprayed a lubricant into the vacuum lines and it cleared up
why dont bottom vent doors not open on 2001 gmcsonoma
Front heater core is in the dash, the rear heater core is all the way in the back of the vehicle. If you have steam coming out of the dash vents, the front HC is leaking. If you have steam coming out of the rear heater vents, then the rear core is leaking.
You have a vacuum leak causing your vents to switch from dash to defrost.
