Heater Blowing Cold Air by jflo520

I have a 98 Jimmy and sometimes the heater will blow only cold air. It was working fine last night, but when I used it this morning the air was cold while I was idling. It warmed up once I got going, but started blowing cold again after about 10 minutes. Can anyone give me an idea what might be causing this?

jflo520,
 
I also have a 98 Jimmy with the exact same problem. It has been like this for 3 winters and no one has been able to explain, or fix, the problem. Can you please copy me if you find out how to correct this. Thanks.

Air only comes out through defrost vents no matter where switch is turned. can not get air to come out of the dash or floor vents!
Ac works and heater works but will only come out through defrost vents.
 
Could it be the control unit? or What?
 
Please help.

I have a1998 Jimmy SLE, same problem, no heat or AC from the floor.GM garage told me it was a shutter door and required removal of dash to replace. Repair costs 3 years ago were $800.00. I opte not to have it replaced. Hope this helps.

I just fixed this problem on my Jimmy. The vacuum line on what I believe is called the vacuum return (little black ball attached to the inner hood, lower right corner) was disconnected. It was very easy to fix, I just looked for a small rubber hose (1/4 " O.D.) that wasn't hooked up to anything and attached it to the nozzle on the little black ball. Now I get hot or cold from any vent I select.

I guess I should have been a little more clear about the problem and the fix. The problem is that there is no vacuum pressure to control the vent selector (its not an electrical control).
The fix: typically when this happens it is simply a vacuum line that has disconnected; the problem with these vacuum lines is that they are very easy to remove from the connector nozzles, they're just like the tubing you use for fish tank air pumps.
Another reason could be that the vacuum lines are cracked, you should be able to tell by feeling the rubber, if it is not supple and feels hard or brittle it might be time to replace the lines. Should be easy enough, just buy a few yards of vacuum line tubing and replace each line one by one, cutting each to the proper length and reconnect.
