I also have the same problem, but I've already replaced the vacuum line from manifold to reservoir. I have vacuum at the connection with all the different colored vacuum lines that is behind the glove box. When I take that connection apart, when I check the black line with vacuum gauge I am getting vacuum. What is my next step? Where are the actuators located and how difficult are they to change?
 
This is surely a vacuum leak, I'm 99% sure of it.

Same thing happened to me and it was indeed a vacuum leak.

It's time to perform a smoke test so you can find that pesky leak.

Like I said I do have vacuum into being the glove box and how do you do a smoke test. Could it be an actuator?

Do a YouTube search for smoke test machine. You definitely want to rule out a vacuum leak somewhere else first.

As for actuators, I have no idea if a bad one could cause this. I’m honestly not certain of how they work.
 
Check the vacuum lines going to your actuators. Look above and to the right of your accelerator pedal.
