Air flow restriction in A/C and heat

I can hear the blower motor trying to move the air but very little is coming out the vents.

More than likely the blend door has broken and fell on the blower which restricts air flow. Mine has done it twice and was fixed by dealer while under warranty, now it is broke again and out of warranty. drop the fan underneath the glove box and I bet you will find the broken recirc door on top of it. Another Great Design By Chrysler! Only way to fix it is to pull the dash and change the whole box. stealership wants 450 just for labor.

You probably have an electronic climate control. The motor is bad or frozen & you need a new one & have it calibrated. Pretty much dealer only repair.

My defroster, heater and air conditioner doesn't work in my 2001 toyota echo no air comes out when I turn either one on help please

Try all fan speed settings to determine if you have air flow on any (particularly High speed). I don't know the specifics of your Echo, but typically high speed is a straight-through connection for power to the blower motor.
If high speed works but none of the slower speeds do, the issue is very likely the blower motor resistor or the resistor connector.
If none of the speeds work, there might be a bad fuse for the blower motor or the motor itself might be bad.
If you can hear the blower on all speeds but still no air is coming out the vents, the issue might be either a damaged diverter door that is not properly directing air flow or possibly something got sucked in to the blower motor squirrel cage and is severely restricting air flow. -Rod

2002 rodeo v6 blower fan is working but very little air coming out vents. What's causing lack of air out vents?

not sure of exact location in the dash but there is a paper filter, if it is clogged it will restrict air flow from the blower.

I have added the gas in my A/C at home but no air flow from vent

Your message is a bit confusing but since there is a vehicle model shown, I'll assume that is the A/C causing problems.If the blower does not push air on either heating or A/C settings, the bearings of the motor may have gotten gummy and are not allowing the motor to spin up. Check the different speed settings for the blower, preferably with the controls set to heating since there are additional controls when on A/C that can confuse troubleshooting. If the highest speed is working, then the speed control resistor has failed. If it does not move air regardless of setting, then the blower motor has failed or the bearings sticky.
If you have added gas to your home A/C, I hope you know which gas is used (R-22- NOT R-134 as in cars) and have not overcharged it since that can caused very high pressures that can damage your system. Different systems also have different intake and output pressures with which the compressor and other system components work best.
