The heater core on a 9000 is always in the coolant circuit (i.e hot), temperature is controlled by a mixer flap that mixes cold outside air with heated air. This part is made of plastic and there have been frequent reports of the control arm attached to it breaking off - SAAB sells a repair kit. There have been numerous posts here on what to look for and how to fix it. It is curious however that there is a break point right at 32 degrees, perhaps the interior sensor is gunked up, despite the fan running????
