09 Limited - No air out of Dash Vents

[SK8RPH]

Hello! I have a 2009 Limited, just replaced the blower motor since i was hearing it failing. But before replacing it, i don't have any air whatsoever coming out of my dash vents? I have heat/ac coming out my footwells and the defroster works, just nothing coming out of my dash vents.
I had a 05 KJ that the resistor failed in, but i know its not the resistor this time in my 09. Someone said it could be a vacuum leak, but I don't have any hissing coming from my engine.
I was thinking it was the blend door/ mode door actuator?? If it is, what am i looking at to get to it? Heard i might have to tear my dash apart, which, i'm not so excited to do

It probably is a vacuum leak, Under the radiator resivoir tank is a vacuum line junction where the line for the inside car plugs in check there!

Hi everyone,

The KJ may have had vacuum lines controlling the HVAC but the KK uses electric actuators instead.

I have had this exact problem and documented my fix here:

Wasn't sure if 2009 is vacuum or electric? My 2004 is vacuum.

No worries. Interesting about the 04 / KJ’s using vacuum for the HVAC controls. Did not know that before.
