Default Vent problem

My dad has a 94 Vette and the air won't come out of the front vents. It will come out of the defroster and down by your feet, but not the front vents. Anyone else have this problem or a solution?

I forget at the moment what it is called but there is a vacuum manifold the controls the vents, might have a vacuum leak or faulty tube.

There is a check valve under the pass/side fuel rail cover. I'd start there.

Yes, I had the same problem and thought it was an electrical flub, but it was the "T" value. A vacuum valve. Where it is, I have no idea, but it was that simple.
