The heat in my jeep is not working. I am not really sure why. With me living in Ohio, it is a pretty chilly ride to and from school / work. I have flushed the heater core twice and there is nothing coming out except water. The jeep gets up to temperature (210) so I don't think it is the thermostat. When moving the slider from Hot to Cold, I can see the cable of the blender door move. I can't really hear anything though going on though. My only guess would be that the blend door is bad but I'm really not sure.
Also, it is a pain to move the slider from hot to cold or vice versa. Not really sure if this has anything to do with it, but I just figured I would list this just incase.
Any help would be appreciated. I just want to get an idea before I go and start tearing apart the dashboard.
 
The most likely explanation is your blend door actuator is broken, or you have a vacuum leak somewhere that is causing the vents not to open.
