2007 xl7, air coming from top vents, even when bottom is not selected. Some air coming from front vents, but most is coming from the top Has anyone found the solution to this problem? Would really hate to take in for service if it's something simple to fix. Out of warranty too, so don't have the cash to spend. Any help will be appreciated?

The mode doors are operated by an electric motor/actuator. The door could be jamming or the actuator could be bad. It's located on the left end of the HVAC housing, under the dash.
