Check under the hood for deteriorated small vacuum hose coming off the intake over to the heater box area.
Repair the vacuum hose.

2004 GMC Envoy has a banging knocking noise in the dash by defrost every time I start it. blower will not switch from defrost to floor or vents

Sounds like the diverter door is bound up causing the motor to bog down under load. You'll need a manual for that job. It's a pain in the rear to get to.

Heater only works on heat won't switch over to defroster or vents

Sounds like the blend door. The actuator motor is located on top of the box (behind the glove box) and is notorious for failing.

2004 trailblazer dash vents fail to blow heat. All other vents work normally. I could not locate a vacuum hose that I thought might operate the upper dash vents. what do you suggest? Thank you.

this vehicle has electronic acuators that move the doors and do not use vacuum. the mode door actuator is bad causing this problem. there is a defrost acuator that works the defrost position and a mode door that works floor/vent operation. the defrost moves and diverts airflow up defrost vwents this is why you can still have defrost and floor.

Dash vents not working

It may be the actuator not working properly. Should be above the accelerator pedal to the right.
