Do you have the electronic controls or the dials? When you say it does not work is it not blowing air or just cold air?

Ya..i have same prob. Only getting very little warm air out of the front..the rear is warm but cycles cold while at a stop light. Up front the door is moving..if press the button to go from 90 to 60 i can feel it make a diff so Im dnt think its the blend door...grr.

hope you get ur prob resolved too.

It could be the infamous broken blend door issue, or it could just be the blend door motor. In either case, it is a DIY project only if you have the skills and tools necessary to do the job. That's something you would know better than any of us here.

A less technical and just as effective way is by using a through the glove box approach like Heater Treater does.

You may just need to flush your heater cores, that was the problem with my truck.
