My blend door is not working. I get no air to the front vents and the air is diverted to the defroster. Air will switch to floor. This was an intermediate problem but is now pretty much stuck. How is the blend door actuated. How difficult is the blend to access to repair?
The bleed door controls air temp not where it comes out, dash, floor, defroster, this is most likely a mode control switch problem, that switch is on the ac control head.

check the vacuum supply and vac lines from the control head for a leak

Maybe the more correct term is the heat/defrost door that sits next to the blend door. I do not believe it to be a switch control issue as you can tell the the system attempts to do the right thing and all other functions work fine. I think that something found it's way into the unit and is preventing the door from functioning properly. Like I mentioned, it would work intermittenly.
I ran into a Chrysler service manager a year or so ago and we briefly discussed what was happening and he said "blend door". Did not have a chance to talk about how difficult the job would be to get in there to clean it up or find the problem. I have the factory service manual and it has more warnings about what not to do than explaining how or what to do.
Thanks
