Air Conditioning blowing cold out of all but 3 front vents

I am having a similar problem with our '99 Pontiac Montana. A/C blows cold out of ALL vents EXCEPT the driver's side (left most) vent and the left and center vent on the center cluster of vents on dash (right most vent of the cluster blows cold).

Does this sound like a vacuum issue??? (i.e. the vacuum line that opens the AC trap/vent door got disconnected and probably controls all 3 of those vents)?

Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Vacuum line has to be connected to this system in order for it to work properly.

Yes, it can be removed and run without the thermostat. However, your gas mileage will suffer and the heater may not work very well.

SOURCE: 2000 pontiac montana air conditioner driver side

That is correct, the air blend door actuator. "flapper valve" may need to be replaced or cleaned and free from binding up. Good luck and hope this helps. If there is an Auto Zone in your area, they can order the part you need and give you the step by step instructions to removing the old actuator and replacing it if it's damaged. Good luck and keep me posted, be glad to help.

SOURCE: The Driver Information Center (DIC) 99 Montana is out

I am assuming that the DIC does not "power-up" at all.

Check your owner's manual to see which fuse powers the DIC. If the fuse is OK, you need to get your hands on a wiring diagram and remove the DIC from the dash so you can check to see if you have a good ground on the ground wire to the DIC. Then check to make sure you have battery voltage to the B+ circuit to the DIC. If the proper voltage and ground are present, you will have to take the DIC to your local dealer for repair. Many GM dealers have an exchange program where you can turn your old DIC in and get a "remanufactured" one on the spot. Others will send your DIC out for repair and call you when it is returned to them.

You may just have to have the system recharged with coolant. When was the last time it was checked?

2004 Pontiac Montana blows hot and cold thru vents even though the air conditioning is on. Mechanic says have to take whole dash out to get to the vent doors to fix it. Is there any other solutions?

The problem is within the airflow box, either a stuck or broken flap. It will need to be accessed via dash removal, (not as scary as you think).

It blows out hot air even when the air in the front is cold

Hard to read your question, do you mean it blows cold air out of the front vents and hot air out of the rear passenger vents?

If the air coming out of the front is just cool and not cold, and the rear vents are warm, you have low freon and need to have it serviced.

My 99 pontiac montana has a heater problem.after engine is warm the heater blows warm air for a few minutes and then blows cold for a few minutes and then warm again. sometimes it blows warm for a few...

I would change the Thermostat. if that doesn't fix it? I would buy a Radiator flush and follow the directions exactly you will be surprised how much junk comes out. That should fix all your heat problems.

Air-conditioning

Low refrigerant charge or a sticking blender door. Check the suction line for temperature. A cold tube means that the charge is fine.

No rear heat in pontiac montana '99

Warm up vehicle, then access heater pipes that run to rear of vehicle.  they should be HOT. if not you have  a circulation issue.  IF they are hot, then the blend door is not in the correct position.  this door directs air across a hot or cold core to create the correct air temp. check and update me.
