I bought a 1996 Grand Cherokee Ltd just over a year ago and had a similar problem
This problem was cused by a retaining clip falling off part of the mechanism in the air conditioner contro system located just above the transmission hump and under the dash. I fabricated a new clip and installed it... works well, but it is a bitch of a job
Before you go ripping everything to bits look for a vac leak in the lines in the engine bay. Default setting if there is no vac is onto the demist (windscreen). It only takes the tiniest hole to destroy the vac system

Ta. Just inspected the linkages they seem OK. Also discovered my cruise control is not responding (same day). I think that also works by vacuum, coincidence? If a small hole will bugger the vacuum, how can you locate it.
Thanks
When this happened to mine i could actually here the suction from one of the vacuum hoses that had come off. You will need to start the car to do this though. Just check all of the lines in the engine bay with the car running
