Defrost/Vent Selector Not working

[abatzis2@hotmail.com (Michael Abatzis)]

al's right, easiest thing to do is go under the hood, apply "homemade vacuum 
(suck on the tube)" to see if you have a leak. i had the same problem when i 
got my rocc--nothing made a difference. turned out to be a broken vent 
flapper thingy under the dash. the plastic nipple was cracked off. had to 
take the whole dash off. it sucked.
