Does the blower work?

The heater is pretty simple...either the coolant is not flowing to the heater core or the blower is not blowing the hot air into the cabin.

And check the connection to the valve that allows the coolant to flow to your heater core. I wish I knew what it was called. It's the valve that you control by adjusting your temperature.

Have fun with that...it's a bitch I honestly would try everything you can before you take out the heater core. I couldn't see it going bad very easily unless it was clogged up or had a hole in it or something (then it would leak into the car).

You sure the cable from your climate control is properly opening up the valve?

Check your blower motor resistor.

Where's the heater valve located and how do i open it, to let the hot air in the cabin??
My cable seems to be rusted so it's stuck on cold and i'm freezing my *** off.
Can someone provide some pics??
