Default Fan Blower Problems

Help!!

The climate control fan on my '00 coupe seems to be running, but I have little if any, air blowing thru the vents. I can hear the fan running, but the noise doesn't match the volume of air I'm getting. The problem appears to occur in both a/c and heater modes. Any ideas??

Have you removed your intake manifold recently? Does air come out of the correct place for A/C, Heat, Defrost ? There is a very small (soda straw size) vacuum hose at the rear of the intake manifold, it supplies vacuum to move air doors in the HVAC system.

It is very hard to get on, you have to "feel it". Some people add a rubber hose extension, check out this thread:
