Default Air Conditioning working odd

Guys,

My air con direction is normally left at:
--> Face

But after a heavy downpour.

The air is now directed to my Face and Feet. But car shows that it is directed at Face

Changing the air direction toggle from Face --> Face & Feet --> Feet only --> Windshield --> Face

The air is still directed to Face & Feet.

Any advise?

If the HVAC system is not changing modes, the easiest first step is to get the Techstream unit and check the HVAC system for any codes.
If something has stopped working there should be a code present to indicate.
I'm not sure why rain would make a difference, unless the water is getting inside the vehicle somehow.
Have you had a windshield replaced at some point?

Thanks for your reply. My car's windshield was replaced 2 years ago.

Will send it in.

Thanks!
