Hi folks, my fiesta heating is stuck on hot, have replaced control valve with anew one and still the same.
Any tips what else to try ?

The heater control switch in the dash can give trouble too.

Just make sure to check all fuses first.

dose the heater control feel different when moved, it is controlled by a cable which can slip out and leave the heating stuck on whatever setting it fell off at, i would start there first

Fuses are all ok, will double check control dial, is moving very freely.

Most of the time its the valve that gives problems but ive seen one or two heater controls giving the same problem.

Did you fit a new valve or s/h ??

It's a new control valve, the heater control is electronic not cable controlled, all fuses are good, has started to go on and off intermittently, off today when it was bloody cold call day !
Was told there is a heating sensor below the glove box that goes also so will try that next. Fingers crossed .
