I don't think we understand what you are asking?

Is your problem that you don't know why your vents are acting up or that you don't know how to hook up the vacuum line (I assume that's what you have unplugged.) that controls them?

Right. The vent selections are vacuum operated, so one you get that vacuum line hooked up, then your vent selection should work again.

The intake instructions didn't say anything?
