Mode switch is for the climate control. It allows you to direct the airflow from your feet, to the dash vents, defrost etc.
this one is easy your switch the controls the vents is not working there is a flap the closes the defrost vents so that it goes through the other vents or there is a vacumn line that is controlled by the switch, and its leaking. The vacumn line is usually on the engine side of the firewall. It is a very small plastic tube comming out of the middle of the firewall at the top and it connects to a junction with other vacumn lines. See if any of them are disconnected.
If the climate control on a 2003 Trailblazer will not switch from feet to head vents, try changing it to defroster then back to head. The mode button on the dual climate control model can only be switched from face/feet to feet and then to defrost. The feet and head vents worked at the same time.
Because the air selector died.
Does air come out at defrost vents? Defrost is the default position. Check for a vacuum leak either under the hood or under the dash Check the operation of the vacuum actuated motors under the dash Check the operation of the selector switch
You have a vacuum leak causing your vents to switch from dash to defrost.
Your most likely issue is a bad hvac control switch. On older cars, this was operated by vacumm pressure, but on a 2002, it is all electrical. It may be that you need to replace the whole control unit.
The e-150 heat/ac system uses vacuum to control the air direction through a series of doors. There is most likely a vacuum leak causing the defrost door to keep air flowing away from the dash vents.
When there is a problem in the vent system it defaults to defrost setting. Check the doors & vac supply
ITS THE VACCUM ADVANCE WHEN YOU ACCELERATE THE VACCUM IS LEAKING WHEN YOU RESUME SPEED THE A/C REACTS NORMAL CHECK VACCUM HOSE LEAKS
If the heat selector will not switch from defrost to the dash or foot vents on a 1992 Buick, it is possible that the cable connected to the vent is broken. When the selector is moved from defrost, a cable opens the other selected vents on the heater.
