How can I locate the blend door for the heater/defroster

1998 Chev S10 Blazer- heater blows air thru the defrost vents and is not heated ?????????????? I have a problem with the heat in my 2004 Blazer. When I trun the control to heat (floor), the defrost (windshield) goes on. There is no heat on the floor and I can hear the defrost working (you know the sound it makes). The heat works fine otherwise but my feet are freezing off! Any ideas? Thanks.

Heater blows air thru floor vents and dash vents but no air thru defrost windshield vent

Suspect a defective blend door actuator motor that controls airflow for the defrost. This electric motor may be defective and in some makes and models can be extremely difficult/expensive laborwise to replace

1998 Dodge Stratus - Air conditioning is blowing through the defrost vents

Vacuum controls this circuit and leaks will cause blend air door to default to defrost. Check for bad check valve or hose leaks under hood first as these are the easy ones to get at and under hood heat causes deterioration.

1999 durango vent control switch will not let AC blow threw vents only defrost

Usually this is a problem with the blend doors under the dash. You either have a vac leak, a dead motor, or a faulty door.
The control opens and closes the doors to direct air thru the heater core and evaporator core along with directing air thru the vents.
When a problem occurs, the default position is the defrost vents to make sure the windshield remains clear.
You can do an internet search for "repair durango blend door" for more info.

Well FOR THE FIRST PROBLEM YOU PROBABLY NEED TO REPLACE THE THERMOSTAT IT IS MORE THAN LIKELY CLOSED SHUT NOT LETTING COOLANT INTO THE BLOCK TO CIRCULATE THE HEATED COOLANT 2ND THE UNIT IN WHICH CONTROLS THE TEMPERATURE OF THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE IS OR MAY BE BAD I WOULD START WITH THE THERMOSTAT FIRST BEING THIS IS USUALLY A MORE COST AFFECTIVE SOLUTION GOOD LUCK!
