Vents quit working

Today while driving I noticed that my vents just stopped working.. I tried pushing the button to change vent settings but nothing happens. I can hear my blower motor coming on but no air coming out anywhere. Anyone know anything on this?

Glad it's working, but on a my last car, I had a similar issue. It turned out to be as simple as the Cabin Air Filter needed replaced. It didn't show any symptoms before just not blowing air. If it stops working again, that's the first thing I'd check.

Should this happen again, if you are referring to your vent selection (where it switches from defrost to primary dash vents) - I would take off the front stereo cover, work my way down to the HVAC ***** and make sure that the solder is in tact. It may be that it needs resoldering.

- Just a thought.
