I recently replaced my battery and ever since then when I turn the air conditioning on it will only blow through the defroster vents. I seems to cycle through from the floor to the normal air vents and then goes to the defroster vents.

Help

1.Clear all DTCs 2.Place the ignition switch to the OFF position. 3.Disconnect the scan tool. 4.Install the motor assembly. 5.Re-connect all previously disconnected components. 6.Remove the HVAC/ECAS fuse for a minimum of 10 seconds. 7.Re-install the HVAC/ECAS fuse. 8.Start the vehicle. 9.Wait 40 seconds for the HVAC control module to re-calibrate. 10.Verify that no DTCs have set as current DTCs. This is how to reset the A/C without the gm scantool...try this out.
