Not sure how the Cherokee is set up (I have '93 ZJ), but I would make
sure the blend door is moving to the cooling side. Otherwise you only
get heat from the heater. If you could get your hands on an original
Jeep service manual, they are extremely detailed in the diagnosis of
HVAC systems. Maybe the library?
