Hello, as this is my first post, Please bare with me. I own a 2000 Ram 1500. I have been having issues with a lack of heat in the cabin. If I get the revs above 2500 rpm, there is lots of heat. The engine heat is perfect, and both heater core lines are hot. I found a door lying in the bottom of the floor distribution box. it is about two inches x four inches. I can see the area designed for hinging is bent, so I am hoping it just fell off. I am certainly thinking I have found my problem.
My question; Is this the blend door? Are there any exploded views available of the heater box?
My dash is cracked beyond repair, and I found that LMC Truck has come out with aftermarket replacements for $240. If I need to tear apart to repair heat, I will wait till replacement dash can be ordered.


cheers,
Andy
