Howdy from Tennessee, I'm Chris aka Moose. Who am I helping today? I'm glad you've come here to get help. I will do my best to get the answer you are looking for. I help many customers, so sometimes my replies are delayed, I will respond once available. I try to be online at 1-5 pm and 10 pm-5 am every day. While using heat up front and while the engine is at operating temp. Carefully grab the in/out heater core hoses at the engine side of the firewall. If both are over 160 degrees F then your concern is the blend door or blend door actuator faulty. If the hoses are cooler then the concern is the heater core clogged. Thank you for seeking us for help, I hope I provided what was needed. Press reply if you need to follow up. If you liked my answer please let me know so I can mark your question complete. Moose
