When I turn on my A/C the switch to move it from feet to front to defrost doesn't work it will only come out the bottom vents of the vehicle.

This is almost always the mode door actuator. Basically this is just the actuator that changes the position that the air is coming out.

Here is a guide on this that will help with step by step instructions:

Below is the info from the manual that will give the additional detail to change this out.

Please let us know how you make out. Thanks
