Hi JRMARK,
Were you able to find out anything about your lack of heat situation? I have the same problem in my 97 Mark 8 LSC. There wasn't much in the threads posted on the subject and the links that were put up about fixes are now broken.

Off the cuff, does the Mark 8 have a controlled valve (electric or vacuum) that blocks off engine coolant from the cabin area to keep heat out when using the A/C? I would think so, but I am not very knowledgeable about FN-10's enough to say w/ certainy. Should this valve be weak, it could be an intermittent problem not seen by the EATC or MIL.

Could be the HVAC head unit.
