did you check all your heater hoses in your engine bay? they may have come loose.

Check the vacuum hose that goes to the control valve.

where does that vacuum line go to? my heat didn't work so i looked at the control valve and boom, it's just hanging. i ziptied the servo open for now, but i can modulate how much it blows (that's what she said).

check out this thread. It could help you figure out the problem by running the diagnostics on the climate control center.
