Default heater Problem

Is there any way to access the blend door motor for the heat. I just bought a 97 quattro and I never checked to see if the heat was working. The fan blows but its just cold.

I checked the tstat and the two hoses going to the core. they are all OK.
or could it be that its too hot outside for the heat to kick on from an internal temp sensor or someting?

Did you flush the core?
You can use VAG-COM to test and calibrate all motors on the climate control.
