My ex called me last night and told me the heat isn't working in her 03 explorer. She said it was clicking for a while, and when she'd mess with the temperature **** it would sometimes go away for a while. But now she's says it stopped and it's blowing cold air all the time.
So I figure it's the blend door actuator, and seeing as how my son has to ride in the car with her, is there any way to manually switch it over to heat until she goes and buys a new actuator?
i've gotten away with removing the actuator and turning it to the heat position and sticking it back in, sometimes. its located behind the glovebox right on top

Understanding that this is a different animal, my BIL has a 2000 Taurus which also has no heat. After a visit to the shop, he was told that the cooling system has a gate valve near the heater core. When the valve is either cologged or simply fails, it closes which simply bypasses the heater core. He was told that a thorough flush will / should solve this problem.
