I just got done fixing the blend door issue everyone has, really excited to have heat. While admiring the $$ I saved (console still out) I switched between the climate control mode switch and found that at all settings, a significant amount of air comes into the console port (exposed with console out, is basically large square duct at the bottom. Even on defrost, a ton of air comes out what essentially will go into the console once replaced. In all cases, air also comes out where its supposed to to some degree. I did notice that on all the settings from vertical to defrost (feet, feet/defrost, defrost) there doesn't seem to be any change at all in air settings for any location. I did check the linkage behind the radio console plate, it does switch to different positions when you turn the knob, does not appear to be broken. Is there a blend door like thing inside there that might be broken? Do you have to remove entire dash to get in and have a look? Maybe this is normal, and with console in it will restrict that air flow on its own by use of vents? Looking for guidance, I am holding off on putting center console back in, this doesnt stop me from driving it but is just annoying. Thanks
