My feet are FINE!

Okay, help me out guise. It seems something isn't quite right in my car. This morning (5pm) I wake up and it's hotter than hell out. So when I hop in my SVX, I start blastin the AC (which works fine) but it only comes out the foot wells. I hit the defrost, and it went to the windshield vents, but as soon as I turned that off, right back to my feet.

Is there like, a bad fuse? Something stuck? God needed some lols? I mean, c'mon.

There is a lever under the dash that sometimes does not move or needs to be greased. If it doesn't move, it will not move the air where it normally goes.

Like... Could I kick it? Is it like, In plain sight? Or do I have to pull a ninja flip and tear my dash to pieces?

You need to lay on your back under the steering wheel and look up. You will see a white nylon track that the lever slides on. It may be stuck. Have someone change the setting and watch it and see if it needs to be helped. If so, you may need to grease it.

Sounds gravy, apparently my girlfriend will be good for something. (that's not true, I made he do the oil change the other day, she was rather svxy all blotted up in oil)
