2 questions!

Go to MyMopar and download a factory service manual. I don't remember if it's Dodge or Plymouth. Vacuum diagram/ troubleshooting on AC / heater is towards the back

I don't remember anymore I believe there are only two vacuum hoses through the firewall. One goes to the heater/ coolant valve, the other ties in with the vacuum system, and there is the little round reservoir tank as well "in that mix"

Will give those a look! As far as the vacuum lines go I can’t find any that seem to be broken. I’m thinking the slider my be due to the cardboard falling apart and jamming it. No clue on why the defrost isn’t working tho
