Why does AC and heater blow air through defrost vents and will not blow air into cabin vents in your 2009 Mercury?

If the AC and heater in your 2009 Mercury are only blowing air through the defrost vents and not into the cabin vents, it may be due to a malfunctioning blend door actuator or a problem with the HVAC control system. The blend door actuator controls the flow of air to different vents, and if it’s stuck or malfunctioning, it may be directing all air to the defrost vents. Additionally, issues with the climate control module or vacuum leaks in the system could also cause this problem. A thorough inspection of the HVAC system is recommended to identify the exact cause.
