MY CAR IS A 1997 MERCURY GRAN MARQUIS LS 150,000 MILES 4.6 LITER I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE HEATER CONTROLS. THE CAR HAS AN AUTOMATIC CONTROL WITH A ELECTRONIC DISPLAY WHEN I CHANGE THE TEMP SETTING(ANYWHERE BETWEEN 60-90) IT WILL NOT COOL DOWN IT JUST BLOWS HOT AIR AS IF IT WERE SET ON 90 IT DOES THIS IF SET IN MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC. EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS, CHANGES FROM FLOOR DEFROST OR VENT FINE, ALSO WHEN SET ON AC THE COMPRESSOR RUNS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP JOHN

Ok Turn the key to on, not start just on, the at the same time push off and floor buttons together, then within 2 seconds hit auto, the display will show a little bar moving around, you have now enter the self diagnostic mode, record the error codes and get back to me!
