I had the same issue. My XM equipment (tuner box, etc. is located behind the head unit & it's a lot of stuff to be in such a small space...LOL!) seemed to have knocked the cable out of the clip. We managed to tie strap it & super glue it in place so it won't happen again. LOL! Everyone here was so helpful in helping us figure it out.

Mine was coming out mildly warm in the feet, defroster, or defroster/feet position. It would blow out cold from the vent or vent/feet positions even if you had it turned all the way on hot, blowing on number 4, outside air or recirculating. All this was fixed when the clip got fixed. Now, I get actual hot heat coming out of the defroster and the feet vents. One thing we noticed though is that when you put it on feet, it still blows out the vent unless I put it a little passed the feet towards the defroster/feet position.

Just fixed my heater today.
The problem was the clip that hold the cable in place to the left under the glovebox.
Worth checking out (Might be the problem)

yea that is probbaly it because i installed a few guages and i rain wire behind the radio and stuff. so where is this clip exactly so i can check it out? i really have no idea of what to look for or knowing on what the clip does, thanks guys for the help and support. i wouldnt know what id do with out you, lol.

when you open it, just squeeze the sides in and the rubber thingies holding it there will squeeze in, letting it fall down. on the bottom, the left side is clipped in, and the right side slides into place.
once you get out there and take a look at it, it's all pretty straightforward.

It's clipped in right because all the other ones work right where they are supposed to, just the foot one is a little off. No biggie. I know about it now, so it doesn't bother me as long as heat blows out now! LOL!
