Even if I change the position of where the air comes out of the air only come out of the top where the windshield is and it wont some out of the front and i checked and i cant find the problem and saw the car book which shows you how to fix the car and i still couldn't find it Dodge dakota 1998 A/C problem? ?
if its not a vacuum loss to the main control unit then you have to replace the control unit that's what helps divide the air up and make it come out the vents or where ever you have it set to come out at,those go bad in the dakota,s a lot,they cost about 35 bucks from a salvage yard used,and take about an hour to replace,good luck.Dodge dakota 1998 A/C problem? ?
not sure about your dakota but i would look for a broken or loose fitting vacuem line near the engines intake manifold or on the firewall... most cases in default all air is blown upwards to the windshied by designDodge dakota 1998 A/C problem? ?
you have a broken vacuum line in your dash. more than likely the one feeding your controls. you have to remove the controls out of the dash to access the lines. once you have done that you can take a hand operated vacuum pump and see which hose it is. if the system looses vacuum then it defaults to defrost which is by your windshield.

This is probably a vacuum operated system. If there is no vacuum to make it change it's output, it defaults to the defrosters. Find the line that goes through the firewall and you will probably find a tee device or something like that. Typically it will be cracked or broken. At any rate, look for vacuum problems. I live in Post Falls Id and can work on it for $40 an hour. Mike at 208-818-6410. Good Luck!
