could be a few things but the main problems they give are the heater control valve on the bulkhead or the heater panel in the car

Wipers off, scuttle panel off, it's behind that lot.

I have done a write up on here how to test these, search my old posts.

If it is the heater valve, replace with gen Ford, the pattern ones might be 1/3rd of price but they are generally crap, sister had one fitted in her Sport Ka and it still blows hot air out on occasions!
