Check to see if its on heat not ac/vent or any thing involving the ac system. Check all vacuum lines from the temp. controls. If it has a valve on the heater line ( I don't think it does) see if you can move it (on the firewall behind the engine). Most of the problems occur with the blend door. This you have to take in to a shop to fix.
