leaky noise

When I turn on my car, an air sound comes from the 2 main vents in the hvac. I found out that its the hose that goes to the knob with the circulation or w/e, the one that circulates air or lets it come in from outside. The connector has 2 hoses, one red and one black. There is another part on the connector that doesnt have a hose and this is the part making the noise.

The a/c and everything works fine its just when I turn on my car or when I'm not on the gas, it makes the noise like air is leaking through or something.

I'm guessing you didn't put something back together right when you did your wire harness swap.....

haha it doesnt even connect to the wire harness so it's just probably a stupid problem.

Sounds like you have a vacuum leak. Are all the vacuum hoses connected to the HVAC control unit?

you mean the rubber hoses or w/e? Let me go take a picture

edit:

The black and red hoses go to the bottom of the connector and the top one is empty as you can see, and it makes the air noise. If i kink the empty one the noise stops

Yeah but you removed the dash when you took changed that harness right? Could have knocked something loose or off and overlooked it. Can you plug the hole? I've gotta install an Alpine fold out sooner or later.... if you don't have it solved by the time I do, I'll trace those hoses when I pull the radio.
