SOURCE: Heating system only blows out hot air through the vents

I would look at the air blend doors first, it sound like they are not working or your control in the dash is not working send a signal to them. they work by changing the air from hot to cold or in between.

SOURCE: WILL NOT SWITCH AIR FLOW STUCK IN DEFORST VENT

when your car is in defrost it has an ac cycling it removes the moisture then sends the air over the heater core depending on how warm you set it you can feel warm or cold but the ac is always cycling...ridding the moisture...you need a good ac tech it will be okay...its just expensive going into the heater core if needed...!

SOURCE: 96 suburban air conditioning blows out cool in front hot air back

Am investigating same problem. Download the free technical manual and you can find a diagram for the air mix door. If this doesn't shut you will be getting lots of heat through despite the cooling of the Aircon. I don't know how to get at it or fix it but it describes how to run diagnostics - you don't need specialist tools for this. Also a blocked pollen filter probably won't help.

SOURCE: Temperature gauge fluctuates and the heater blows cold air

Definitely check your fluid level in your radiator. Top it off all the way. I've seen that happen multiple times on cars that were low on anti-freeze. If that doesn't work try replacing your thermostat. It's cheap and the easiest place to start if topping off the fluid doesn't get you fixed up.

When we turn on our heater on the temp is fine but when we turn the heater off the van overheats.

You may have an engine cooling fan that isn't working. When you run the heater you are removing some heat from the cooling system which aids in keeping the engine cool. If the cooling fan in front of the radiator isn't working then the engine can overheat at slower speeds when there isn't any air being forced through the radiator by the forward motion of the vehicle. If this problem is happening only at slow speeds then I would suspect a cooling fan BUT if it happens at steady speeds over 35 mph you may have a different problem.Hope this helps and good luck!

1991 Chevy G20 My Van does not produce much heat. If I turn the fan up i get cool air yet if on low or off i can feel heat just at the vent. If i am driving a while i seem to get adequate warm air but...

The heater core may be coroded and pluged up. Its common on older cars. f the cooling system was drained recently and refilled its possible there os air in the system which will block the flow through the heater core. You should also check the valve ,usually on heater hoses to make sure it is opening and closing properly when you turn the temp up.

Cooling system problem

well it might overheat because air got into system, replace the thermostant and then fill system, run van keepin an eye on the temp, it will start to run hot because coolant has not filled the motor just the radiator, when it starts running hot shut it down, wait 3 minutes and start, now this is done with cap off,after restart coolant should get sucked in get filling radiator as needed,may get messy but got to bleed cooling system. hope thius helps.

My heater is not working in my 2001 honda civic. Is it my thermostat?

Does the heater blow cold air from the vents or do you mean the there is no airflow from the vents? cold air from the dash vents when the heater control valve is set fully hot could be an air pocket in the cooling system. The radiator sits slightly lower than the engine causing air pockets to get trapped in the engine when you replace the coolant. you'll have to purge the cooling system to restore flow to the heater core. No airflow (blower motor inop) this could be a bad blower motor transistor. pin test the blower motor circuit.

Increase cooling of A.C

With the A/C off and engine running and up to normal temp check the temperature at the dash vents at medium fan speed.It should be close to the outside air temp.If it's higher you have hot air from the heater leaking in the air stream to the dash vents.Next check the A/C system for a full charge...NOT OVER FILLED or UNDER CHARGED. Next check for air flow through the exterior of the condenser. ( in front of the rad.)The fan should run when the A/C compressor runs.These are the basics.

2000 Mercury Villager w/ heat, no heat, & temp gauge flux

you have air trapped in the system.
Park facing uphill (on car ramps if you have them).
with cold engine, remove radaitor cap and fill radiator.
Fill reservoir.
leave cap on loose.
Turn on heater.
start engine and run until upper radiator hose gets hot (meaning thermostat has opened).
Check coolant level and top off. Repeat until temp gauage reads normal and heat is coming from heater ducts.
