When I slide the heat control from heat to defrost I'm getting no air out of the defrost, all still comming out the floor ports.  I don't even hear any audiable change.  All the ductwork is connected , no blockage.   Is this totaly vacuum opperated? Or mechanical?  What should I check first?
 
ThanksSmile

Mel, I'm not sure on your car, but I think the "Mode" door is vac. operated. It could be a cable, tho. ('77 was when they changed the A/C-Heat controls/console.)

Hopefully some one will have that answer.

Don't you have the factory service manual?
