Most likely cause is that one or more of the motors controling the blend air doors have failed. Another possible problem is something fell into the defrost vent and is blocking the door from closing. If air is only coming out of the defrost vent for all vent positions, then you likely have a vacuum line that is broken or the vacuum reservoir (3" ball mounted near right front of engine compartment) is cracked or leaking. Try removing the lines from the reservoir and connecting them directly (to check the reservoir integrity).

I have a 2002 Ford Explorer that is get low air flow from the defrost vent when the defrost unit is selected. Most of the air flow is going to the floor vents. Is the blend valve bad?

Hi, It is not the blend door, that is for heat/cold changes. The mode door could be the problem, or stuck defrost door.


Why do you not have air flow from the dash vents on a 2002 Mercury Sable when the defrost and floor vents work fine?

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.

You can't get your fan to quit blowing through the defroster in my 2002 Ranger it won't blow through the dash vents or the floorboard vents Does it work off vacuum or electrical system?

The system works off of vacuum. A line from the engine vacuum manifold runs to a 3 inch ball shaped reservoir (mounted to right front wheel well), then another line to the Heating-Ventilation-AC system. If air will only blow out the defrost vent, then there is likely a vacuum system problem. Remove the engine vacuum source line from the ball shaped reservoir and confirm that the there is vacuum while the engine is running. Then remove the HVAC line from the reservoir and connect it directly to the engine line. If this works while the engine is running, then you have a cracked or leaking reservoir.

Check under the hood for a disconnected or damaged vacuum line. The controls are vacuum operated and if the vacuum supply is cut off the system defaults to defroster only.

How do you turn on the ac unit on in the back of a 2002 trailblazer?

If you are talking about the back seat controls then it is a matter of pushing the power button. The front controls must be set to send air to the upper vents. You will not get flow to the rear seats when any defrost option is selected.
