In other words, no matter how you set the vent selector it will not change where the flow of air is coming out? It is very likely that your blend do has lost either a vacuum line that moves it or a busted spring for returning it to its localized position. you will need a philip's head screw driver, a set of 1/4" sockets, and an accommodating ratchet for this job. (if you are doing the work yourself I will help you with the steps. Let me know and I'll post them up.

I replaced air blend actuator and the air is still blowing out front vents only wont go to floor or dash

The blend actuator/door does not control where the air goes, it only controls how much of the air coming in is routed through the ac evaporator and/or heater core. You didn't state year, make, or model, but most cars have two or three more acutators for controlling inside/outside air, floor/dashboard outlets, and defrost.

AC is only blowing through the defrost vents in the dashboard?

I think your problem is the head unit that selects where the air comes out ie. Face, floor, defrost, or hi-level face and floor. If that's not working then it will not let you switch location that you want the air to come out.

The ac on my 1998 ford ranger only blows out the defrost vent and floor vent. How do I fix it?

Almost sounds like the actuators are inop. depending on which style you have, some are electrical motors and some are vacuum. These control the mode doors which move to deflect air to various vents.

Air stops blowing through the vents when accelerating

u have a loss of vacuum to the ac mode control switch, this switch applies vacuum to diff vacuum motors to move air to diff outlets, dash, floor, defrost etc. either the vacuum line or vacuum resivior at the engine is leaking or the mode control is leaking vacuum.

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?
