CAR HEATER REPAIR FAQ'S
Why Did My Car Heater Stop Working?
The most common fix for a car heater blower not working is a heater motor replacement. In some cases the problem can stem from under the hood. Other related causes if your heats not working include:
Coolant leak: low coolant supply to the heater core will result in no heat in your car, truck or SUV
Heater core repair: a small radiator that controls coolant flow for heat inside the cabin
Heater blower motor: no heat blowing inside the cabin
Radiator problem: a radiator repair or recore may correct a no heat problem
Faulty HVAC controls and valves: small parts in the car's heating & AC system that can fail
Thermostat problem: a stuck or faulty thermostat will not enable the heat to kick in
If your vehicle is warmed up and the vents are blowing cold air, the problem is likely your heater or engine coolant. Your car's heating system uses coolant (antifreeze) from the radiator. If coolant is low and there's not enough to supply both the engine and the heating system, the engine takes precedence. A more serious problem when your heat is not working is the water pump. The water pump is responsible for circulating coolant throughout the engine and radiator, if the problem is the pump, coolant runs through the engine rather than the heating system.
