Defrost-only working is the 'fail-safe" default on that system, meaning that some major part is not working. It isn't likely that a vacuum fault alone is responsible.
You need to read up on the ACC II system. Start by searching "evil servo" and go from there. Also check out the links I posted in this thread: http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/diesel-discussion/327465-1980-300sd-servo-bypass-amp-question.html

First check the green vac line under the hood. That's the main supply for the ACC.

I highly doubt that is your issue, you have the evil servo system....the most hated climate control system know to man.....read this manual to understand how it works. If your interested in getting it working again, I can guide you, but be prepared it may end up costing you 500-700$

Some free advice you can take or leave: unless you are a really, really fast learner, you want to take up cooljjay on his offer....
Expertise on this system is thin on the ground everywhere now, it's an old and unloved thing, fancy-dancy for the early 1970s when it was designed, but a certifed PITA nearly 35+ years on. So when someone offers to walk you through, I wouldn't look the gift horse in the mouth too long .

The ACC II is a highly misunderstood system. Most problems are actually quite simple and the servo/amplifier is frequently blamed before any other tests are performed.
Check fuses 2, 3 & 10. Also check your yellow/green vacuum (supply) line and the 4 way rubber connections near the brake booster. Check the nylon lines at the servo as they can sometimes crack in the bend near the connectors. #1 cause of "failed servos" is a shorted A/C low pressrue switch which will blow the ACC fuses when the compressor switch is thrown. here is the ACCII W123 specific manual: http://www.w123.it/file/W116climatecontrol%20manual.pdf

This is a very common, 20 minute fix, exactly the same as the broken solder joints on the tach amps. I can get a replacement ACC II amplifier for less than $100.00...

ANY vacuum loss whatsoever and the system won't come on in any mode but defrost. You need a vacuum gauge and the diagram posted in the link above to check for vacuum leaks. Email me via my profile if you need tech support. I've been driving a 300SD with ACC II for over 20 years....

The number two reason for the acc II not working correctly is the temp sensor tube that runs from the passenger side speaker grille to the blower assembly, with out this tube...the system cannot sample the cabin air.

All the later model cars had an external fuse added to prevent a water pump failure from damaging anything. It is fuse #12 in the W123 ACC-II diagram. However, the most prominent complaint I have experienced in 20 years of working on these systems is blown ACC fuses when the compressor switch is thrown, which everyone always blames on the servo. Keep in mind the A/C compressor cut-out switch is power controlled and not ground controlled, hence a short will blow the fuses and seem like a bad servo. I am the guy who fixed these systems when everyone else gave up on them...FWIW

Finally found EVIL SERVO thread. So after looking at a few bad old cars ( that 300D , BMW 63..., Saab convertibles..) I am back to square ONE - and strongly considering making the 6.5 hour trip north for the white 78 300CD.
If I get this car aside from any other fixes it may need if I have EVIL SERVO issues I'll be back.... ...
