Default No heat. used to work jsut fine... very strange

As title states used to be running strong.
Now the fan still works in all speed and all that good stuff the way it should but, only blows ambient air temp.
If anyone has any ideas let me kno.
also what is the little switch going to heatercore do behind intake manifold area?
I recently rebuilt the tranny and might have bumped that thing with the rear mount when I replaced it.

check ur coolant level's. I semi new to integra's but with my subaru the cable on the climate control has slipped off before becuase I've messed around in that area so the vent to switch over from cold to hot was stuck on cold.

if ur coolant is making it to ur heater core it should get warm.

Look and see if that valve you are talking about near the intake mainfold still has the small metal wire going to it. That valve is what allows coolant to get to and from the heater core. There could be an issue there, or like someone else stated, if the same type of wire has come unhooked from the climate control or the heater core under the dash somewhere the same type of thing could happen.

there wire is still there, but I dont think im getting any heat to my heater core.
I will investigate more today.
as I turn it to hot should the little valve open up?
also what can I do to get the climate control area of the dash board off?
I remember the heat control giving some resistance as I would adjust it in the past.

that little switch was the culprit I think its binding somewhere in the dash board.
I just flipped it towards firewall and now it blows hot.
