Yes. The 2 wheels for the center vents are both in the up position. And air is coming out of all of the vents.

Thanks abscate, I will try that.
Scot850- Yes, it's by cables. Is there maybe a flap I can check out that controls the outside air coming in?

Just for grins, roll the wheel on the left down.
This is the outside air venting control - See "Air Mix":

AhHA! I think I've found my own diagnosis.

Air flap actuator arm!

Pretty sure this is my case.
