Unhappy no heat in xj

having problems with my heat in my 97 XJ,
&& to top it off...my guage cluster only has a fuel guage and a speedometer, so i don't know the operating temperature. it will blow air just not anything warm...
any ideas on how to fix it? or what the problem may be?

i am a girl and new to jeeps so i don't want to start pulling stuff off and end up breaking something :/

if it blows luke warm air then your thermostat might be stuck open not allowing the water to fully heat up. especially if is gets cooler as you drive. replacing is a good place to start, and on about a $20 fix
