Default My 2002 lariat's AC will not blow out the front vents

No matter what option I pick (max AC, vent, panel floor) the air only blows out of defrost and floor. I have tried looking things up but I don't know where to start. The only thing I've done is take the controller out and unplug/plug back in. Any help on what to do would be greatly appreciated!

I'm sorry I don't understand what that means. I probably won't know too many terms that you say cause I've never gotten into the AC.

You can search "97-03 F150 Blend Door replacement" for the info about it. Probably the quickest way for an understanding.

X2 on jbrew.

It's an actuator that is in the dash it moves a flap that controls what tunnels the air go through. Usually the hardest part about changing is in a not so big space, they only use a couple fasteners, and are relatively cheap

Mine did that also.. before replacing the blend door, check for a vacuum leak. There's some vacuum lines that are in the left corner against the firewall of the engine bay, that's what was wrong with mine.

My vacuum lines seem to be intact, I checked them myself and someone else checked them also. So is the last thing the blend door or is there anything else it could be?
