Default AC not blowing out the dash

I just had the AC in my 82CE serviced. I replace the blower motor, so it now gets plenty of cold air volume, but only out the floor vents and a little out the defront outlet at the windshield. The conrol panel had been replaced during the interior rehab.; Could the controller wires not be hooked up correctly?? please help.....it's hot.

I'm no expert but Yes, it is quite possible that one of the vacuum lines was not installed correctly on the back of the A/C Heat controller. I would start there especially if it was blowing out the correct vents before. The vacuum lines are color coded and if you look at any of the Corvette part suppliers' catalogs you will see which one goes where on the back of that controller. Maybe there is one that is not installed at all and is just dangling. good luck
