Check for vac leaks.When you have a vac leak it outomaticly defaults it to defrost.Also check to see if your cruise works.If it dont then when you fix the vac leak that will fix both problems.They are both tied together.

i had the same problem, but there was no leak there is a vac hose that goes from the intake manifold to the passenger side then tees off to the firewall and a canister, i took off the hose and cleaned it out with sea-foam ( there were like little filters in the hose that were clogged) put it all back together and it worked first try.
