If you're still getting heat out, then the heat valves, which are back on the 
lower heat exchangers are set open or stuck open. The only fix is to make sure 
that your heat control levers, next to the E-brake, are all the way closed and 
then go under the car and check the valve levers. They are cable operated and 
they can be wired up wrong, so they never close, or wired open by a wire other 
than the control wire, or they can just be stuck open.

You'll know more once you poke your head under there and look.
