First I would hit the right side of the center console, on the carpet just
right of the heater and radio. This is where the vacuum unit is, they are
know for having bad solder joints thus hitting there you will often hear a
click and then things start working in which case it will need resoldered.
Additionally things are of course to check that the fuse is good, and you
have good vacumm supply. Either one will cause vents to fail to defrost.
I have had to replace the vacuum actuators and resolder the vacuum switch
module on all my W126 over the years. Note if you remove the dash to
replace
vacuum actuators consider replacing the AC expansion valve as that on the
SELs they are pain to replace with dash in place.

With this system you are just going to have to follow the
troubleshooting procedure in the manual. I do not have it at the moment
but Im sure somebody can get you the info.

Hi Gang,
Yesterday with the vent or A/C button pressed (Position #2 & #3) and temp
wheel turned all the way down, air does blow out the center vents. Now I
know from the ETM, it can either be the ACC unit or this other "unit"
(for
lack of a better name) that controls the vacuum to open/close the vents.
One question....on a W126 WHERE is this "unit" located, and what's the
best way to access it for troubleshooting?
Also, any any advice on troubleshooting/repair of this problem would be
greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
