If they told you that they having you on mate takes 20 mins to get dash out, remove steering colum, two muti plugs from top of fuse box and speedo cable from gearbox everything comes out still bolted to dash.... simples

one of three things
1. heaters control valve is stuck. this doesn't allow it to switch over to 'heat'.
2. there is blockage in the heaters core, not enabling fluid circulation thru it, thus not supplying warm to the cab
3. the temperature is stuck open. thus the coolant is constantly flowing and does not have a time to heat up the way it should for heaters use
i would check the control device first. wish this helps ya
