No matter where the selector is set, it seems like the majority of the air is coming out the defroster. This happened one time before and a dealer fixed it.

Check for vacuum at the control head, if none , open the hood, locate the black supply line it runs off the manifold, to a check valve, to a reservoir cannister, and into the van. This line, check valve or cannister is leaking vacuum, or the actuator that controls the air distribution is leaking vacuum.
