Default Question for the Tech pro's

Turned on the fan for some heat and although the fan was on full, there was very little air coming out any of the vents. I tried redirecting the airflow by selecting the various heat/AC choices but it made no difference. Worked fine yesterday- its like the vents are blocked closed. Suggestions?

I thought that disconnecting the battery (maybe even just pulling the fuse) would reset the dampers if in a failed closed or other mode.

Check for any Body Control Module (BCM) codes. Everything is controlled by a computer somewhere.

Disconnect the battery for about 30 seconds and the computer should flash back to factory settings (At least it does that for the power control module).

Tried disconnecting the battery - no luck. Which fuse contols the dampers and where is it located??

Is there anyway to manually adjust it so the air flows out the front of the dash?

Default Thanks to Bill Curlee, SHE'S FIXED!

It turned out to be a vacuum hose located at the back of the Intake manifold. A BIG Thanks to Bill Curlee who took the time to not only provide details, but pics as well - Check this out:
