Try Duct Vents, Ductwork Vents, or Dash Vents. Then Dash Outlet Vent, A/C Outlet Vent, Dash Panel Vent.

You may be able to find something in a Salvage Yard. The other problem you may be having is the Dash Panels are 1 component so there may be no separate sales for just parts on the panel. Say Lear makes the Dash panels for Ford; they come to the Assembly plant already assembled.

You may need to take off the Dash panel anyway to be able to pry out the old vents if you can get replacements. You would help yourself alot by going to a Salvage yard and seeing how stuff comes apart so you don't break your parts.

Now that you know the name of the parts, try a Dealer and ask if they can get new vents or not.

Why does My thermostat Not switch between ac,heat,defrost . there's cold air coming out of vents but not cold enough to be ac. Initially when this started the ac was blowing hot air

If the air flow cannot be controlled from vent/defrost/floor you may have a blend door issue. This is an electric motor that operates a door in the heating system to control airflow. There are usually 3 motors controlling airflow direction,heat and recirculation. The Ac not blowing cold may also be another problem. If the AC is operational, the compressor will be engaged and the Ac low pressure line under the hood will bw cold. If this is all ok then a blend door issue should be suspected

2002 ford explorer AC and heat blowing in dash, but very weak from the vents

On the motorcraft parts web site, you can blow up
a picture of the HVAC Blend Door Motors & locations,
as well as part numbers

You can get failed motor from Amazon

With knowing where the motors are located, try switching
the air flow modes manually, to see what positions do not work

Then you know what motors to replace

I also have professional scan tool software & can see the codes
for the motors in enhanced data.

The-- Vent Blend Doors-by name

Defrost-up top
Cabin -the vents as you say in the middle & on the sides
Floor
Recirculate-under the glove box
Blend Door -under the dash on your print

Heat comes thru driver's side vents, but blows cold air thru passenger side vents

You likely have a faulty blend door. It could be electrically, mechanically related, or even a broken door. It may be the blend door motor, or possibly the temp sensor.

Heater and ac controlls not working 1994 corvette

Are all the vents working? Does your Cruise Control work (properly) it may work and shut off. If your vents are working is only hot air or cold air coming thru, or just your defroster vent?

You have a 3 way check valve under fuel rail guard on passengers side, its a pastic barrel shape thing it rots and creates holes in it causing your ac vents and cruise control to malfunction.

next your heater control unit if you have the one with a slider to regulate the hot or cold temperature breaks easily inside unit, its only plastic. Its an arm inside unit to control the temp in car it slides a door open or closed for heat. If you look where he slider enters thru that hole space you will see a post it sits on to open and close .

Rick, u will need to take your car to get serviced. If your ac is not working properly it might be something inside that needs to be looked at. You might need to replace your heater box.
