1) check if your cable is stuck or not, they do need adjustment from time to time.
2)ebay, junkyard, your neighbor's accord, honda
3)does the heater give you a sweet smell to it? in short check the heatercore, blower, etc.
4)defroster patch kit, they works if you have a damaged line, too bad they looks like crap

 

#1 Open the hood and check the brake fluid level
#2 Honda sells heater control *****
#3 OPEN THE HOOD and watch the heater control valve operation; see #2
#4 The heater grid is best left alone, I have seen people jumper the broken part with solder though.

All very solid advice.

Just wanted to add...

#3 Is the thermostat working properly?

#4 The window heater grid has one or more breaks in it. Look for obvious scratches or other tears in it. If you have a lot of time on your hands and want to mess with it, check out alarm supply companies or similar places. They may have a 'paint' on product that might bridge the breaks. Don't know how the heat will affect it though.

 

Thanks guys for your help ima gonna write down all the possibilities you said and check it out ... i appreciate your help .
