My heater has suddenly stopped producing heat. Fan works but no temperature control.

Check the hoses going into the heater core, they should both be HOT so be careful, if the outlet pipe is only warm/cold, the heater core is clogged, a common problem in these cars, backflushing may help, but normally replacing the core is the answer.
