Heat not working or diles

The heat is not working in my 1995 nissan quest

    comes and goes more heat when accelerating

  • darcypa Dec 09, 2008

    Is this the same with the 1997 model year? How can I tell if it is not a problem with the thermostat? Its -20 c today and I drove for 30 mins at highway speed and I barley came off cold, I don't think I made it to normal. Is their a summer and winter thermostat for this vehicle?

  • Natasha Wieszt Nov 27, 2012

    We just put in a new thermostat and the heat works for a little while and then blows cold air. What else could it be?

You most likely have an air pocket in the cooling system. The heater core on these vans is much higher than the engine and they can be tough to get all the air out of them.

Make sure the coolant in the radiator is full when engine is cold- also fill the overflow bottle to the top. Chock the rear wheels. Jack up the front of the van as far as you can and support with jack stands. Run the engine until it's warm and then hold the RPMS at 2000 for about 5 minutes while checking for heat inside the cabin. You may hear some funny noises like something is trying to come through the firewall forcefully! That's the air pocket moving... you might not hear this also. Once you have good heat inside, let the engine idle- if the air coming form the vents cools off after a couple minutes, the air is still there- keep doing this until the air is hot coming from the vents at idle for more than a couple minutes. Once you have good heat, turn the engine off and let the engine cool completely- at least a couple hours... you will most likely see the level in the overflow drop dramatically. Lower vehicle and make sure overflow is at COLD FULL mark.

Newer Altimas also had a similar situation in which heat would go away at idle- usually not a problem with an air pocket, but Nissan has a bulletin out on putting the correct concentration of coolant/water in the system- these cars are very sensitive to changes in coolant mixture concentration.

I have a 1995 Nissan Quest. It has a keypad entry system on the driver's side door. I programmed it and it worked for several years. After I had it repaired once, the code stopped working and I can't

yes, the permanent code is on the plastic card in your owner manual packet. You have to enter it, then press 1, then enter your 5 digit code, then hit 1 again. your owner manual will explain too.

1995 Nissan Quest - 110,000 miles, engine light has come on, engine runs rough, steering wheel seems to vibrate, shake, or shudder, does not want to accelerate, smell of burning plastic.

Have your engine mounts checked. I was experiencing the same type if things, and it turned out all 5 were cracked! (I also have the 1995).
