HELP ME PLEASE
Looking for some advice to fix this myself--
my 2001 xj only blows air (both hot and cold) through the windshield defroster vent. Nothing comes through the lower or upper dashboard vents, regardless of the setting that I put the control **** on where should i search or how to fix it
its summer here so help me before i get cooked.

Blend door actuator is stuck. This can be because of a broken or cracked vacuum line or an actual obstruction for the blend door. 99% of the time is the vacuum tubing either broken, or disconnected

Under the dash you'll see a mini diaphragm. Check to see the tubing is connected. Pop the hood trace the vacuum line back from the vacuum ball reservoir behind your front bumper. Look for any disconnects or broken pieces. You'll want to follow this to the to the IM and still continue to look for breaks or disconnects

Here's some pics of the vacuum system in your engine bay. Click on each photo to enlarge it.

Your blend-air door actuator is a servo motor operated device, not vacuum operated.

There's a photo in that link I posted that shows how to fix that broken tube.
O'reilly Auto Parts has the small tubing for that.
