HELP I'm COLD!!!

I have a 1994 Benz S320 (140 chas) with NO heat coming from the heater system (Blower works great). I've replaced the thermostat and have trouble-shooted the problem to the duavalve (Heater control valve). It runs about $400 new. I was wondering if anyone knows what else it may be before I invest the $400 on the duavalve, once you buy it, its yours. I'm a fairly good mechanic but I'm NOT to firmilar with the Benz system. Most regular domestic and imports would of been fixed with either the thermostat or the heater control valve, of course the Benz is a little different in design.......Please HELP!!!

too many to list
Speedetec I would suggest that you atleast get your A/C system diagnosed by a certified MB technician it will be valuable in pinpointing the problem so you don't waste your money.
