Need some more details, but since you said vacuum, I'm guessing you're looking for Dorman 47170.

My problem is when I accelerate my a/c changes to defrost vents. It just started just the last time I drove it. I checked all the lines and don't see anything out of place. I'm hoping for simple fix. Thanks

The check valve could be the culprit. Take it out and see if you can only blow through one direction. Also check the lines and the vacuum reservoir behind the passenger side of the bumper.

That fixed it, it was the check valve. Thanks for the help.
