1997 Ford Ranger Heating System Problems

I have a 1997 Ford Ranger XLT 2-WD where the cabin temperature cannot be adjusted. It stays hot no matter what. I turn the temperature control knob all the way to the right and it doesn't effect the temperature. How do I fix this?

There is another fix for broken blend door. You can remove the broken door by going through the bottom with a razor knife and following the recessed triangle, cut through it to remove and replace the door without having to go through the problem of removing the heater box. They actually make a kit to fix the problem cost about $130. go to www.heatertreater.net for more information.

I have a 1997 Ford Ranger. Problem: I have heat all the time. I have checked the temperature control and it seems okay, as I can read a resistance change when moving the control.
