A/C Problem 96 LT1
The air from my a/c flows through the defrost and floor vents only. It will blow cold air, but, not through the a/c vents. Wondering what is causing this. I have read a few threads on some similar problems, but, did not see the fix. Thanks!

There is a little Vacuum check valve on the right side of the intake under the Fuel rail covers.Looks like a little barrel with three lines coming out of it.Check it out.and the rubber hoses...usually you Cruise control will fail too.It's a cheap part form autozone or whereever.....

on the 96 it is NOT that check valve. I too replaced that valve for NO reason. it's the box under the dash board.
there is a HUGH writeup on the corvette action center site. I have the same problem, but havn't felt like crawling under the dash yet.
