I turn my heat on my car the whole way, and it only gets warm, not even enough to heat the car. help someone? Do you think it could be a bad thermostat??

 

check if the motor is working

Honestly what kind of answer is that???

Anyways does your temp guage show your car is warming up??? Usually if the thermostat is bad your car wont warm up. Or like when mine was bad it would warm up when at a stop, but when i started driving my guage would drop all the way to cold.

x2. if your heater is not working could it could be two things. your thermostat could be bad (stuck open) and not warming up the car properly.

another thing is your mode door which switches from hot to cold. what is does basically is open a door which allows the hot coolant to warm the air. if you can hear the mode door open/close (operation should be smooth with some resistance) then you have a faulty heater core.
