Loren That is a whole different animal.
I can only assume that this system is controlled by some type of selinoid
that switches the direction of the vacuum. If you can remove the inspection
pammels under the dash and get at the vacuum hoses I would look to see if
you have a vacuum leak some where

Robert,

There are three knobs and three buttons on the panel. Left knob is fan
speed, middle temp and right is selection of defrost, etc. When I switch
the right knob, you can hear the air switching from front or floor vents to
windshield vents, but the flapper is not moving. In the past, I have heard
a delay in the flapper moving and have said I have to check on that. As you
know I waited too long and the flapper cannot be heard now at all.

Loren Unless they have changed the controls from about 1990 or 1991 your
controls should slide up and down and the fan speed control runs left and
right at the top of the control panel if this is the case then you should
find 2 screws at the bottom of the control pamel they screw in vertically
from the bottom. Remove the 2 screws and you can pull out the bottom and
remove the pamel. Be carefull because behind it you will find 2 or 3
electrical connecters, 2 linkages and a searies of vacuum hoses. See if
there is any thing binding or if there is any broken plastic or if any of
the vacuum hoses are not connected. That is likely where the problem is.
If every thing checks out OK there then you will want to check out the
flappers them selves.
You might have to get under the dash and remove the plastic covers take note
of where every thing goes because they tend to put a lot of screws in those
covers. I would start with the middle cover and see what you can find. I
can't help you much beyond that since I don't have that model and am not
sure exactly how it is set up .
Good luck
Robert

Subject: [BlindHandyMan] find air flapper

Hello,

I have a 1995 GMC Yukon. The flapper is not opening up when I turn the
controller to defrost. The air flow is changing direction but will not come
out. I can tell the flapper is sticking, and wondering where to look to
locate it. Can I get to it from the duct coming from the fan under dash
area? The less I have to remove, the better I will feel.

Loren
