Default 90 HVAC vacuum source

Does anyone know how the HVAC programmer connects to the vaccum source ? ( 90 TPI ) The FSM does not specify the location so I traced out the underhood vacuum lines. I can see where the vaccum is taken from the plennum and goes to the storage tank and cruise control but I cannot find the point where it feeds the HVAC programmer.

As you may have guessed my heater is stuck on defrost. I can hear the relays clicking on the programmer when I select various modes so I'd like to verify there is vacuum before I dig deeper.

Thanks...

Of the two ports on the rear right corner of the upper plenum it should be the rear one. The diagram below is for a '91. Yours should be the same. the vacuum line leading to the port should be black.



hope this helps,

Keep in mind that in my pic there the hose is missing the 90* elbow, and the check valve on the end of it.

I found the hose. It had came off the check valve and fallen behind the distributor. Thanks for your help.
