I have a 98 Mercury Mountaineer and had the same problem, on my truck the blend door acuater is a digital switch. I had to end up taking it to a shop and letting them do the job because the entire dash down to the firewall had to come out, the cooling system had to be drainedand the AC system had to be evacuated to get to the switch. This process cost me a total of 1000 dollers. Sorry about the bad news.

A vacuum hose failure will cause the blend door to "fail safe" to the defrost position also. Would suggest checking this first as it would be a cheap and easy fix...

If you do need to replace/repair the blend door there are several threads on this forum using different methods for a fix.
