sounds like the mode door actuator is inop.its a little motor that moves defrost or heat mode door when it is selected.moe

its not that easy.back in the day there was a problem with a vac line that went thru the fire wall to your ac/heater box.not sure if your newer car still uses this method .wouldn't hurt to look under hood for broken vac line .pretty sure you don't have this set up.moe i'll look for picture of what your dealing with inder your dash. (mode door)

So they're motors now? Hmm! So that's why it doesn't change when going up a steep hill or stop the engine. My older ones always defaulted to defrost when loosing manifold vacuum.
