Default A/C Temp Control

After work tonight, my windows were fogged up and so I turned on the defrost. The setting was on cold cause I was using the A/C last. When I tried to move the setting to warm, it wouldnt budge at all. Its stuck on cold. Kinda hard to drive home with a fogged up window. Any idea what could be wrong?

You may have to disconnect your battery, to clear the fault in the electronic unit. Same thing happened to me, and that's what I had to do, per CF instructions. Haven't had a problem since!

You can pull the fuse on the ECM for 30 seconds, too.

I'll give these ideas a try. Kinda odd if you ask me.

No good, I pulled the fuse for a few minutes and it didnt fix it. I opened the hood and noticed that a connector had come loose from the A/C line. I hooked it back up but it didnt fix it either. The A/C, heat, defrost switch moves just fine, but the temp. one wont budge at all.

Do you have the electronic A/C or manual? The manual system uses a mechanical cable from the temperature select lever to the temperature door, lube or free up the lever mechanism, cable or temprature door if it is binding.
