Default 03 LS HVAC Blend control issues.

Im having quite the odd time here.

03 Monte Carlos have the Vacuum selectors to control the actuators, This car stays on defrost any other settings have a hiss behind the selector in one of the vacant holes of the line bulkhead.

Still the unit stays on defrost regardless. Also blows a little through the vents, Mostly cold on the driver side and hot on the passenger.

Should I find me a new vacuum valve or is there a line MIA?

Default 03 Monte HVAC issue.

Sounds like a vacuum line may have come off for the HVAC. Most cars have a default setting so that if you lose vacuum or something along those lines, you at least have defrost mode so that you can see come winter I guess.

I've got an 04 SS and those actuators are all electric on mine so I can't speak too much on your issue. Could be you hit a bump or someone kicked off a vacuum line. I'd definitely check for a hose off before buying any parts though.

If you have a hiss, it means vacuum is making it to the control head. Sounds like a bad head.
