The heater in my 1998 Olds Bravada will not turn off. And it won’t let the A/C work. I literally bake in it. What do ya’ll think?

The blend door is stuck. I’m not sure what method your vehicle uses to control it. It could be electronic or mechanical (cable). Do you have automatic climate control?

Yes, it does have climate control.
