The switch that controls the air flow is either operated /controlled using either wire, pneumatics, or electrically driven/controlled. Make sure that all of the connections at the damper are intact and working properly. Pneumatically driven is usually the most common on todays vehicles, so make sure you don't have a vacuum leak on any of the damper hoses.
I hope that you have found this information to be useful, and if I can be of any further assistance, please let me know. Thank you for using fixya!

SOURCE: All Air Conditioning blows our the defrost vents

Some thing you could look at would be this. The control is usually fed by a vacuum line or small hose thats is connected to your intake manifold.
With a cold engine,look for a skinny vacuum hose that runs from the intake toward the fire wall . It should be going inside the cab and connecting to the A/C vent control.Some times the hose becomes disconnected or splits or cracks due to heat under the hood.
Thats usually the trouble.
I hope this helps you.

SOURCE: Air conditioning blows cold through

Your control valve for your duct work is having a small problem, its just not opening. The duck system work lid the heat/ac ducts at your home. The only difference is you can control through a vacuum controlled valve where you want the air to flow. What has happened, is the valve has shut the system at the neck( where duct is connected for all the vents) There are three areas that could be wrong. 1- a vacuum line has come apart or broke( they are just made of rubber). The line would have to be replaced. 2- the controlling valve is stuck, and either needs to be unjammed or replaced. 3- your control unit(mounted on the dash, the one you use to adjust everything) has gone out. Being you have an older car(great year for caprice)you also have some cables on the control unit. One of these may have gave way(broke) or the plastic clips that hold them may have snapped. You can manually ope the vents from under the dash. It will be under the center toward the passenger side. You will see the ducts leading back to your control box. you can also see the rads and control lines there. just adjust the arm til you get air in the vents. its a tight fit, smaller hand work great for that. I hope this helps you

Vents won't blow hot or cold air. Comes from defrost and feet when you put fan on.

It's the vent actuator, it moves the baffle that changes the direction of the air flow.
Here is a video of a broken vacuum hose that creates the same problem.

It could also be a failed actuator.

Left Vents blow warm/hot air when calling for cold air

Usually a sign of a faulty blend door under the dash.
The blend doors direct air thru the ac and heater core along with the upper and lower vents.

A/C will only blow through defrost vents

Common question on this site. On late model cars, the vents are controlled by blend door motors. Small electric motors open and close doors to direct air flow.
Chances are you have a blend door that is stuck or a failed motor.
The default position is the defrost to make sure the windshield is always clear.
Someone will need to look behind the dash to see if all of the doors will move on demand.

A/C blows from defrost and floor vents, nothing from dash vents.

the switch where you turn it to blowing at your head is probably out. you will need to replace the switch control where your defrost, foot, head etc. what make, model, year is your vehicle?

Jeep AC blows cold air at defrost and feet but not through vents

There is a flap that directs the air. the flap is controlled by a vacuum actuator. This is located inside the venting. The actuator is connected to little vacuum hoses that attach to the temperature control switch. Either the flap is stuck, or the actuator has gone bad.
