Ok this is odd, maybe its the gremlins that come with these cars but I changed the a/c compressor clutch this weekend along with the cabin air filter and it made a world of differance and works perfect.

Then yesterday on my way home I go to throw on the a/c and no matter where I have the knob, a/c/panel/floor anywhere it comes out as defrost:shrug:
 
Ok that didnt solve it, I checked those lines and the lines coming from the uim, I guess I will have to chase them through the firewall to see whats going on, or could the controller be bad?
 
mine does the same thing ryan when i put it on ac or max ac it only blows thru the defrost:shrug:
 
Turn it to heat. Does the air vent work in "all directions"? If it does, you know it is related to the A/c only. If not, it is the "hoses" or the controller. I would check the "hoses" first. Chances are one of the hoses from the engine bay came out.
 
i think it's a vac leak. cause when i pulled my hvac controls it only came outta my defrost for a min or so then it came out the vents after it got it all worked out

mine only does it on the 2 ac settings. all the others work correctly
