Got a issue

My heater is stuck on warm, doesnt matter what i put on the "knob", warm or cold, its just hot hot hot.

When i drive 70mph or faster, its getting really really hot under the steeringwheel, same on passenger side, need to stop and take a brake every 20 minutes :)
And this is with the fan at zero, if i put it on 1 or higher its the same thing, but from the dashboard and where the heat is supposed to come from.

Have read something about a heat-valve, where is this located?
Can it be the electronics in the dash ?

Sorry for my english, im from sweden :rolleyes:

sounds like balend door is stuck. if you push in the recirculation button, it will remove any incoming air from the engine compartment. this will reduce hot air under dash. i believe the actuator motor is above and to the right of the gas pedal. check to see if it move while you change ac/heat cotrol position.

this is in the car under the dash. i controls the direction of air flow based on the position that the controller(dash knobs) is put on. i believe the motor for the blend door is monted just above and to the right of the gas pedal.
