    HVAC issues - air isn't blowing from ANY location

    Mine has an intermittent issue with the selector door for the torso outlets not opening. It will close the defrost and foot outlets, but not open the torso, so there's very little airflow at all. I would get down and look closely at it while changing the outlets. Now that I know what's...
