Heater fan only blows cold air, but the temperature guage still shows the heat rising. Does this automatically rule out the thermostat? If not, what else could the problem be?
Yes,it rules it out. The valve leading the water into the heater core is not opening or the door that put the air past or through the heater core is closed. This is general information not specific to your particular model.

I believe the mazda protege has a separate thermoswitch to activate the radiator's fan. Perhaps the fan keeps blowing until the temperature is too low. Try replacing the fan thermoswitch. Just take care to put in tis place a thermoswitch of the same temperature range.
sounds like the thermostat has a problem and needs to be replaced. The thermostat regulates temp and it defective can either stay closed or stay open and I reckon in your case it has stuck open permanently. Your manual should show you where the thermostat is located.
You have air in the cooling system, it needs bleeding, this is best done from the heater hoses. you cannot have a heating or cooling sysem that is not pressurised. no water no heater no demister no temp guage
I DON'T IT'S THE THERMOSTAT, BECAUSE I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, COME TO FIND OUT IT WAS MY BYPASS HOSE BEHIND THE ENGINE THAT WAS LICKING THE COOLANT. CHECK COOLANT RESEVOIR.
