2009 jeep patriot 2.4 heater not blowing hot
hello Greg
your post invites wild guessing. do to lack of facts.
sure no coolant, sure look,sure cap of rad , cold look, is it full.
but...
1: are the fuses ok, we test them.
2: doed the blower blow air? on high. y/n. my wild guess yes.
3: no heat, on heat max and set to recirc,
4: next is engine heat ,it must be 180f +, or that is it. or more.
5: #4 passes ,then we next (SM steps here , read them) you next
check the to 2 heater core hoses, as they pass from BAY to CAB.
at the fire wall. in use, right side.
the SM again, tells you the correct temp, here, 125 to 144f
depends on engine, there. not stated. (my 3.7L does 144f)
6: if both are hot, (we do a hand test, ('skills") some use and IR thermal gun?a $19 tool.
if ok then the dampers in core heater box, are stuck closed.
7: did you scan the PCM for HVAC errors yet?
some will report ,damper motor errors....
some jeeps have HVAC self test, stated in the SM
the Jeep offical, service manual, got one?
if not ,get car serviced, at stage where dampers failed.
