trying to find where the vacume hose goes from the actuator
i have a 1996 chevy s10 blazer my 4x4 does not work i replaced the 4wheel actuator but i can not figure out for nothing where the vacume hose goes from the actuator. someone cut the hose so i dont know where to go next i think i traced it to some kind of 3 prong looking switch right there on the right side of the t case where my front drive shaft hooks up but i do not know witch one it goes to because the hose is cut along with another one i dont want to get them crossed. can anyone help me out?
then there is bigger hose coming off the top of the the front diff and it runs to one side of the t case and then it stops its not hooked to anything im trying to figure out where that hose goes, if you are looking at the front of the truck the hose stops on the left side.
in the diagram below what is the little box to the left right by the vacume source.

Yes the diagram does not show location of the parts. It only shows where the hoses go to.

That is the vacuum reservoir. It is either a black ball attached to the hood, or in the fender well. It balances out the vacuum when your going up hill, etc, so your 4WD and other vacuum related things don't mess up.

The "square box" in the schematic is a vent and has a small filter on the end, probably attached to the transmission dipstick tube, or the firewall. It vents the actuator to atmosphere when you select 2WD. It is also teed to the transfer case vent, which on your transfer case, might be located above the vacuum switch. The vacuum reservoir is teed into the source line with a check valve, (not pictured in the schematic).
