automatic temperature control for a/c and heat not working Sign In

I have a 1999 Blazer Lt with automatic temperature control. It is a 4x4, 4.3V6 with 107k miles. The temperature control doesn't change the temperature of the a/c when turned up or down. It also doesn't kick in the heat in the winter months. What could be the problem?

The heat in that vehicle is controlled by a blend door that regulates heated air flow. it is operated by an electric motor/actuator. The problem can be that the actuator is stripped or inoperative or the door itself could be damaged. This is what needs to be determined by examining the actuator and see if it is responding to heat change commands or not.

It's number 1 in the picture and located behind the glove box.
