Your motor for the temp door may not be working. It is all the way under the dash, toward the back, may be able to reach it and put your hand on it from under the driver-side foot well- but with the windows up so you can hear, listen to hear if the motor runs when operating the temp from cold to hot. If you have Climatronic, take a deep look at Climatronic blend door motor. The Climatronic is a fully controlled system. You absolutely need to use a scan tool to access the diagnostics and code memory. You may just need to clear the DTCs for compressor operation. Also, these are known for temp sensor problems causing no compressor operation. You pressure readings to indicate the clutch is not engaging.

check your air diverter doors, sounds like the door for heat is open, when a/c is selected the doors should move and close the heater off. the heater will over power the a/c. the door controller is located on the environmental station under the dash neat to the floor. the control is electronic and probably not functioning

The heater in your car depends upon a flow of hot coolant going through the heater core in order to get hot air into the car. If the heater core is partially plugged, it will restrict the flow. If you have a head gasket that is putting exhaust into the cooling system, it will eventually get into the heater core. When this happens there is no coolant in the heater core to make the air warm. If the water pump vanes have corroded away the result will be very poor coolant circulation causing the heater to not blow hot air. If your car is equipped with a heater control valve that is not functioning properly, the coolant flow will be restricted. One or a combination of these factors is likely the culprit in your case.
if the car is not overheating, the thermostat is working fine.... replace or flush the heater core multiple times to try and eliminate sediment build-up.
