Either the blend door or the blend door motor if I had to guess. Find out where the motor is and see if its moving (listen for it, etc.) moving the control hot to cold and back while you are listening. If you can take it off, that would be easier.

i changed the blend door motor and now it works like a charm. i would try that, it was a cheap 60$ part from ford. a pain to change though....
