Switch from wall thermo to unit the cool works switch back to wall thermo it only blows warm air. When I switch to unit controls the heat always comes on first not cool is it the thermo or the wiring>>???
SOURCE: Not heating
Yes, the reversing valve has a separate coil. some energize on cool mode, some on heat mode. Has the thermostat been replaced? I find this a common mistake.

SOUNDS LIKE YOUR HEAT STRIP IS NOT COMING ON THERE COULD BE A NUMBER OF THINGS TO CAUSE THIS,BAD RELAY ON THE BOARD BAD HIGH HEAT LIMIT,BAD T-STAT
SOURCE: my heat pump blows cold air for the first 10 minutes or so
Don't know how long you have had a heat pump but thats the nature of them in colder weather. Some people prefer to switch to "emergency heat" on the t-stat when temps fall below 20 or 25 degrees. This bypasses the heat pump and allows your back-up heat to heat the house. If your house is total electric your emergency heat is an electric furnace and it should handle the load if it was sized properly. Don't leave it on emergency when it warms up because your heat pump is much cheaper to operate than the furnace. As always, check your air filter since it can restrict the amount of air that moves thru the furnace, which is critical. Hope this helps
SOURCE: unit not blowing cold air
you have a slow leak in your refrigerant and need to find the leak. you will have to get an AC repairman to come to your house and check it for leaks and fix the problem.
