Here's some info: `Driver's side of the heater will not heat. The temperature mixture door is not opening because the linkage has fallen out of the retainer clip. The clip is brittle and has cracked. You can replace this clip. Spend $5 on some new rod clips for your temperature actuator motor. The part number is 9721438000 (Holder-Linkage rod) about $2.25 each. It is part number 17 on the image attached.

Disconnect the battery negative terminal with a 10mm wrench. DO NOT remove the radio and console. It is a total waste of effort on early Amantis. It could cause an error in your radio, already a weak link in an Amanti.
Remove the lower panel under the steering wheel. The screws are in the left side access panel. Use a small flat bar to remove the press plugs from the left console side panel. Pop off the left console side panel, then slide it back and remove it from the cab, store all removed parts in the trunk, safe from harm.
Use a ten millimeter socket to remove both upper and lower cross bars under the instrument panel. The lower one fastens with two nuts, the upper one four bolts. Remove the bolt from the console frame member and pry the plastic plate from the metal frame. Once the plastic is no longer reinforcing the console frame arm, bend the metal arm towards the steering wheel enough to get the magnetic Philips screwdriver shank straight into the actuator motor bracket screw.
Use a 6" shank magnetized Philips driver to remove the three screws that secure the actuator motor bracket and the axle shaft from the cam. Then remove the axis screw from white nylon plastic cam. One of the metal arms will be loose, because the clip has aged and cracked. Carefully unclip the other control rod and remove the cam. The new clips unfortunately may also crack, so you may want to order an extra one. The white plastic motion converter cam has a clip at both ends. Use a small needle nose pliers to remove them both, then install the two new clips exactly in the position the old one came out. Replacing one is folly; replace both. All of these plastic clips are ten years old, so they may all be at the end of their useful life. Before you put the support and panels back on, observe that the heater door actuator functions properly when you change drivers temperature on heater control panel. Reassemble in reverse order of disassemble. Wipe down all surfaces with mild detergent on a soft cloth to remove fingerprints and dislodged dust.
This process may also reveal an opportunity to clean the drivers side carpet.

2005 kia amanti--heat blows out only on pass. side. all drivers outlets blow cole in winter...Thank goodness for heated seats!!

If dual heat, most likely the control actuator on the drivers side is bad. If you can get things disconnected enough, you, maybe you can manually push the flapper door to the heat position.

If that works, then you have to find new control or control actuator.

Most of these are vacuum so check vacuum tubes for leaks. I've had mice do a number on such things.

To the wisdom of the auto makers, they have moved to organic rubber in cars. Great food for the vermin

I have a kia amanti 2005 both heat up but i have no heat in the car. what can b the problem

"Both" what heat up? Both heated seats? If so, the heated seats are heated using electrical current. The cabin heat from the vents is heated from engine coolant. The car will need to be running several minutes before heat will start blowing from the vents. If once the engine temperature gauge gets up to normal you still are not getting heat from the vents and are certain you have the climate control settings correct to be requesting heat, you probably either have a blend door issue or an issue with the valve that allows coolant to circulate through the heater core. I'm assuming that your blower motor is working and you can feel air flow, just the air flow is not warm. If you are not getting air flow, then the blower speed controller may have failed, the blower motor may have failed, or some other issue is preventing power from getting to the blower motor.

Driver side blowing hot air passenger side blowing cold air

I'm having the same problem except on mine it's the driver's side that's blowing cold. Do you have the pictures in a finer resolution? I can't make them out and when I zoom, they are too grainy. Does the replacement require removing the dashboard? What's the general cost of the acuators? Are they readily available at like NAPA or other parts stores?

2005 Kia Amanti; heater on driver side blowing cold air, passenger side blowing hot air. Checked all fuses. antifreeze ok. no leaks anywhere I can see. Are there two thermostats? Stumped.

For those of you who may google this link and are looking for an solution, my local repair shop isolated my 2005 Amanti problem to a $2.78 plastic clip on the temperature blend door actuator rod linkage. It simply fatigued and eventually broke resulting in the actuator rod falling off the actuator door lever. The labor to isolate the problem and to replace the clip did amount to almost $170. Hope this helps those of you in the future.

You open the glove box, drop down the glove box door. There will be a slim panel behind the glove box that needs to be removed. Remove that panel and voila! That's where your cabin air filter is at. It's easy to do.
