Thanks for all the responses and help on this. I finally tracked down and fixed the problem. I pulled the ACC unit and the panel of switches on the console above it. I found an electrical connection had been pulled off of the center vent vacuum swtchover valve. Put it back on and all is well in the vacuum system. Car shuts off-center vents work and door locks etc. all functioning now.
Amazing how one little electrical connection can throw this whole car out of whack. As I get a deeper understanding of the vacuum system and get better at troubleshooting it, I find myself growing fonder and fonder of these little beasts.
Again thanks to everyone for the help.
