Air conditioning does not blow out of the front vents, it is coming out of the defrost and floor vents.

Follow the instructions in the picture below and get codes then get back to us. This has to be done with an automatic temperature control.

Hi JANETCLAIRE50,

Here is a link to a video from our site that shows you how you can scan for codes yourself. If you do not have a scanner you can purchase one from Amazon or most auto parts stores will rent one to you.

I hope this helps you. Please let us know how it turns out and thank you for your question.

Hey JANETCLAIRE50,

It sounds like you have one of two problems, either you have a blend door actuator that has gone bad or something is stuck in the blend door itself which will require the heater box to be removed.

Here is a link to watch how to replace the blend door actuator.

Let me know what you find

Best, Ken
