Thank you so much for this video! My wife has a 1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass G Body with no a/c and we live in Florida. She thinks that the blower motor is working because she can feel air coming in through the defrost vents. However, there is no fan blowing either. So this will help in diagnosing the problem, as we are the 8th owner of this vehicle. Also, even though I know this is unrelated, I got to laugh at the Walmart battery. I've had some auto store mechanics try and slick talk me into buying their more expensive batteries by downing the batteries from Walmart.There are only about three battery manufacturers that mass produce car batteries for every retailer in the U.S. When I had to get a new battery for the Oldsmobile, it still was under warranty from Auto Zone. However, the three guys working there, plus the one on the phone, had tried to con me into believing that the date on the battery was not the date it was filled, but the sell by date.

@@87SSBOI Okay, I saw a video on someone doing an El Camino, that center panel pops off the same way. But like you, I have to "Prop" that flap open just to get the air blowing in the Center, that is after I trimmed some of the Rubber off of it, it's like the Rubber was melted on the front caused the flap to stick. Anyway I am going to assume that the center not functioning is because I don't have the A/C System setup on this car yet. Other Modes like Vent, Heater, Bi, and Normal seems to circulate from the top and bottom according to HVAC system diagrams.
