my dad pulls up in his van and says the front air vents aren't working. he's ready to go to the mechanic.
he starts applying his old school procedure, looking in the manual, trying to take covers off...
I got on the internet and find a youtube video of the same symptoms.
turns out, the vent goes out of there's a vacuum leak.
what does the vents have to do with a vacuum leak? absolutely nothing. they designed it that way so you would go to the mechanic if there was a leak.
the mechanic tells you he replaced a fan motor for $500, when the reality is, they changed a $8 hose.
I didn't find any bad damage so I blew out the hose and re-connected it, BAM! vents come back on.
