Hi, I have a 2000 Winstar Sel, The heater and A/C has been working just fine untill today, now the A/C works fine the fan runs as it should but when turn off the A/C and slide the control to heat all I get is outside air and no heat.
Does anyone have any ideas??

Thanks

Do you hear a clicking sound from behind the console? This happened to our van - there is a motor & gearbox that drive the blend door. (controls outside air & heated air mix) The gear will strip & then all you get is cold air. (and the clicking noise as the motor tries to move the door)

From your description, it seems you most likely have a clogged/leaky front heater core. Do you get heat in the rear?

This is exactly what is happening to us. What parts in this set up need to be replaced?
