Defroster problem...
Hi All,
I Just recently bought a 1996 Jeep Cherokee and the front heat vents won't
switch to the defroster position. The heater seems pretty strong in this
thing, but it's always blowing to the floor. Are these vents working off of
vacuum? Electric?
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has had any experience dealing with this
and what they had to do to fix it. Thanks !!

bumper in front of
right side wheel well

Vacuum. The nipple is on the back corner of the intake manifold.
