heater not working

**melliza** · 01-27-2010, 01:31 AM

it's been getting really cold here & my heater isn't working. :/
anyone have any ideas on why?

check your coolant level... your heater block could be vapor locked

**subspec** · 01-27-2010, 04:09 AM

that or. the heater valve. might be stuck closed.

**celicaturbo700** · 01-27-2010, 09:05 AM

or the line that lead to the core could be seized

**subspec** · 01-27-2010, 09:14 AM

lmfao worst thing to say: no heat, could be anything, thermostat, to just the floor not giving anything, we had a guy come in the other day saying there was no heat, all it was is taht the floor vents werent opening, everything else worked fine.

Therm would most likely be overheating or temps being too low. A lot of older muscle cars that had high hp usualy removed the therm also.

i haven't been able to check this problem out. haha.
my ac works perfectly fine. probably the best things about the car. lol.
where would the heater block/valve be?

The valve should be on the firewall. It looks like a elbow fitting with a wire connecting to it.

my vote is for the thermostat. happened to me on all my used cars. stuck open.
