The temperature control knob doesn't work on my truck. Just blows hot
air all the time no matter the temp outside. Air conditioner only
blows cold when selector is placed on max A/C, otherwise blows hot.
Suggestions?

Oh, and it's a 1997 XLT.

Sounds like the same problem we have, but you are in the beginning phase of
the out and out failure. Pretty soon the door wont switch at all. Unless you
want to fix it yourself, it is a costly repair.
