my 1989 crx hf does not blow warm/hot air thru my defrost or vents! i full bast the climate control on hot position and warm air comes out the defrost vents but it does not heat the interior of my crx! it's like 30 degrees in WA! and i need to stay warm! any help, i would be really appreciated from you! thanks!

 

please help!

 

i am cold! help me plz

 

Let me get this right..

The air comes out all the vents but just isnt hot..??

 

yep!

it'll warm up the car if the car is not in motion! but when driving the heat blows and dissolves into cooler air! if you know what i mean!

 

Alright ..

First thing to check is radiator coolant level..Make sure it's topped off with antifreeze because if it's to low then you wont get heat,,

 

checked! what else could it be? instead its 16 years old, lol!

one guy from this honda tech forum said:
there are two valves from what i've learned that control the coolant flow to make your heat work... under the hood in the engine bay there is one right at the firewall. it's grey. installed on a 1" or so diameter heater hose. that valve needs to be open so your coolant will circulate to your heater core. in the center of the bottom side of your dash is another valve/control that has a cable going to it. it will need to be "pulled" open for the heat to work. moving it away from the firewall is "open" you could remove the cables and just set your heat to high manually like i did.... but this option is going to suck when it starts to get warm out. should keep you warm for now though.

 

I dont know about that..Never had to deal with that before honestly..

What about the thermostat..Is it good.??

 

therostat, i dont know! i have not checked meaning i dont know how to work around my crx! i'll have my buddy check on that today! thanks for youR help Mr. Speaker

Yeah if the thermostat don't open you wont get heat....

Take it out and boil it in some water,,,If it opens its working..If it doesnt then its time for a new one..
Lets just hope that this is the problem..

 

sweet deal, my cable from the heater **** to the cable undernieth the dashboard was disconnected, it was somehow disconnected! now and finally i am staying a bit too warm, oh well better then being cold!

 

Ahh.....all is well again. It's always the simple things that we don't think of. Next thing you know, someone would be postin that you need to remove your rear tire and check for camber adjusting, which would throw off your heater center of gravity, which in turn would cause the cool air flowing from it.

 

huh?
