Hey all, the last time I needed you guys you came through clutch! So here’s another one. I live in WI so on the way to work this morning it was a little cold. Turned knob to heat….no change in air temp. From coldest to hottest dial temp the air stays the same. A/C works great. I can change all the air from feet, dash, defrost like normal and all directionality works. Coolant level is good. Rubber hoses from heating core (pulled plastic motor cover) behind and left of motor, are both hot after getting home today. When I have key “on” and move coolest setting to hottest I can hear the actuator? Making a noise but no results. Is the blend door actuator the problem? I did use heater a couple times about a month ago and all was ok. I have a 2013 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited. The light on the defrost has always blinked for 20-30 seconds before fans turn on if that means anything.

As always I appreciate all feedback, this site is amazing for info. If you need more info please ask!
