The heater system uses both the cable and a vacuum lines. If the vehicle has been sitting for a couple of years. Spray a little wd-40 into the heater controls. Don't spray where the fan speed switch is. move the controls back and forth a few times. Sometimes the rubber 0 rings get stuck from sitting in one positon for a while. Move the control up and down slowely to free up the lines.
