hairyg Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 What is the deal? Got a 90. Whether it is heat or ac, the top vents along the dash do not throw out air. The floor vents and the defrost vents do. Help me, please. Love the car, want to fix it myself, a weekender. I have heard: mechanic only, clogged vents, motor behind the glove box, vacuum hoses... What do you all suggest I do first? Youtube video on it? God's peace be with you. Thank you in advance. Proud owner of this 90 with only 88k. Hairyg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy Wagon Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 If you look under the dash on the driver side there is a little lever/bar towards the center console box that needs to be pushed. It's a faded-white color. I think the bottom has to be pulled towards you or something. It's been a long time. I used to have pictures. Maybe I can find some for you as I didnt drive into work today. Either way, what essentially happened is that now that lever wont switch on its own anymore so you have to do it manually. I suppose once you find the piece I'm talking about you could tie a small rope to it or something to pull it. I've tried adding more grease, but it's never worked for me and always just ended up getting my hands dirty grabbing it the next time. It helps to lay down and look under there. From this view it's perfectly hidden behind that mess of wires...but I'll keep looking. Couldnt find one, but if you can take a picture of that area without all the freakin wires in the way I could show you what I mean. You can kind of see it if you know what you're looking for in the picture, but whatever. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3442/5846772956_5294ea7d38_z.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v195/TetsuoShima/adsfasdfasdfqasdf.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hairyg Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 It is extremely nice to be a part of a forum like this. Legacy Wagon, THANK YOU!!!! It took me all of three minutes to do exactly what you said, and it worked!!! I thank you very much. No telling how much the mechs at my local dealer would have charged me, not to mention how much more time I would have spent grasping at straws to know what was the matter, instead doing something that I did in no time at all with your free knowledge. Peace and triple thanks. Hairyg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
