If the system is blowing hot air all the time - no temperature control at all, it's likely the blend door is stuck in the hot position.
See "Related Questions" below for more about troubleshooting blend door problems.
If the system is blowing hot air all the time with the fan on high, it is most likely a vacuum problem. In doing a lot of searching, and swearing, I found out that the system has a "Failsafe" mode so if there is a vacuum problem, the operator wouldn't lose the ability to see out of the windshield in cold weather. Check for a vacuum leak under the hood. It could be causing your heater/defrost to go into this mode.
