Answer
what we need to do is ck vacuum in the eng compartment to the vac. heater control valve. it is located on top of the evapator box .place your hand on the heater hoses to see if they are hot and they are all the same temp. now while you are there ck to see if the steel rod broke off the other end of the valve.now unplug the vac hose you should have no vac. when the heat is on.leave it unplug and give it 5 min. to see if you get heat .do that first .then let me know.
