It sounds like the heater core is disconnected. This is usually done on older cars when the heater core starts to leak.
Check for two black rubber hoses under the hood (of course). One should be the inlet to the heater core, the other should be the return. They should both go into the cabin through the firewall (ususally somewhere aropund the top/center portion of the firewall).

The heater core is like a small radiator. Hot water runs through the inside of it and the cold air is heated by coming into contact with its outer fins. It is housed inside your dashboard.

Default Fan

I'm gonna guess the fan resistors might be bad, but the higher positions are usually the ones to go first. Might just be a loose wire somewhere.
