Air conditioner and heater issue...

Hello everyone.....I have been using my air conditioner during the summer and have had no issues that I know of til today. It was cold this evening so I turn up the temp and try the heater but no air comes out of my vents anymore. I can hear the fan working behind the dash and it can be adjusted from off to full blast but no air. I turned the adjuster on the vents to warm and back to cold with no change. Turned air con button on and still no air from vents. Put it on windshield/defrost also but no air blows out there either.

Also on maybe a separate issue I noticed when I first bought the vehicle the rear air unit just barely blows any air out when on heat or cold. Is this normal? By barely I mean you can just slightly feel air if you put your hand right in front of the rear vent unit.

Any solutions or thoughts on either problem?

Do you have air coming from the defrost vents or footwell vents?

Well...I do today. All three outlets are blowing fine. Last night nothing came out of the defrost or dash vents on hot or cold settings. I'm not sure if the air was coming from the footwell vent tho. I think maybe it was blowing from the footwell last night. Last night and today I tried all the various settings I know about .... turning the rotary setting on the vent itself and also the temp settings back and forth from 60 to 90.

I dont know if it matters but I should add that last night when trying this it was 45 degrees and today its 64.
