Default Climate control issue, only blows air toward floor

Hey all, heres a question, when I turn the dial that controls where the air is directed for the climate control, often it gets stuck with blowing on the floor, no matter what setting the dial is in. Is this a sign that the control is going bad?
Any help would be great!!

Blowing air only at the floor/defrost is usually a vacuum leak - it's the "default" setting. Check the vacuum lines behind the intake and going towards the passenger side. If it's only intermitent could be something else going on.

You might want to check the switch(dial). At work we have this problem where the switch go's bad and only blows def or floor.
