Default A/C Valve Getting Stuck

I have an 06 f150 XL, and have had this issue for quite awhile now, but i am just now getting around it it.

Just like most issues, I'm sure others have had this as well.

If i put ac on lets say feet/defrosters, it'll switch on and blow out happily.

But if I want to switch it to blow out feet/hand(i guess that's what Ill call the vents in the dash) the valve doesn't switch over and it stays blowing out feet/defrosters. Eventually it will kick over, sometimes in a couple mins, sometimes wont come over till a day or 2 later.

Has anyone else had this issue, or anything similar to it? Where are the valves to control the air vents located?

I know, I'm trying to figure out why/where it is.
