In a 2001 Sterling truck, the heater blend door is typically located within the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) housing, which is usually situated behind the dashboard. To access it, you'll generally need to remove the dashboard or portions of the center console. The blend door controls the mix of hot and cold air to regulate the temperature inside the cabin. If you're having issues with temperature control, it may be necessary to inspect the actuator or the blend door itself for proper operation.
Its located on the left side of the evaporator housing inside the truck behind the heater core shield...................
did you check the heater core because my truck did that and that was what was wrong
If you are asking about the blower you only have one that controls both the heater and the a/c............
If the vents are inside the cab of the truck, this could mean you have blown your heater core.
The rear/auxiliary climate controls are basically up-front, feed to the backs, and have their own temperature blend door and heater core in the back.

This sounds like a temperature blend door problem - with the door stuck in the heat position. See "Related Questions" below for information on Taurus/Sable blend door actuator motors and blend doors
Could be low on coolant or the thermostat is stuck open or the heater core is plugged or the temperature blend door actuator is broken.
Low on coolant. Stuck open thermostat. Plugged heater core. Faulty temp blend door.
There are no block heaters on gasoline trucks. Dielsel trucks have them on the bottom of the engine block so that heat rises. And if there is one installed on the truck there would be an outlet cord in the grill of the truck.
To access the blend door in a 2001 Ford Taurus, you'll need to remove the dashboard and the heater core housing. Start by disconnecting the battery, then remove the trim pieces and screws securing the dashboard. Once the dashboard is out, you can unbolt the heater core housing to reach the blend door actuator, which controls the temperature of the air coming from the vents. It's advisable to consult a repair manual for detailed instructions and diagrams for your specific model.
