No heat for my truck

It's cold outside so I started my car in the morning to defrost the windows. There was no heat coming out (even after the car was warmed up). I turned the knob to cold, just to see and it got hot. Then it went cold again. So I swtiched it to Hot and it got warm then cold again. So I will have heat for my car if I keep turning from hot to cold (red to blue). The anit-freeze isnt low. My boyfriend said that the heater core is hot too. The knob doesnt feel broken (if that makes sense). Do you have any idea what it could be? I really appreciate your help.

    Is this expensive to fix? I am not good with cars, is it "easy" to fix?

You have a problem with the temperature control blend door actuator in the air ducting system, this part can't be replaced without removing the dash assembly.

Heat problem. Heater only works sometimes. Blows out almost AC temperature majority of the time. No engine overheating problems. May or may not be related to actuator issue (vent always open)
Check to see if your heating system is properly filled. Air in system can often prevent the proper flow of hot coolant into the radiator core resulting in your issue.

Hi I have a 2005 mazda 3.. My problem is when I turn the car on my blower comes on but no heat.. As I drive my car after 5 mins my heat comes through the vents.. Any solutions??
The heat that you get from the car's heater is extracted from the engine coolant. When you first start the car, the engine coolant is as cols as the outside air, if not colder. The running engine will heat the coolant after a few minutes and then you will start to feel the heat in the vehicle. The outside temperature and the thermostat in the car are the determining factors on how fast and how hot the coolant will get. On a really cold morning 3-5 minutes is not unreasonable.

I have a 93 4runner v6 manual. I went to turn the heater on the other day and no air was coming out of it but when I started driving down the freeway air started coming through the vents. When I stop
sounds like your fan is either jamned, burnt out or even frozen, you might be lucky and find its just a blown fuse, you'll need to check your fuses box then start investigating if the fan turns freely or not

if you put the air on recirc you might be able to stop cold air blowing in when you are travelling. if you are waiting for a garage to sort out the fault then get a fan powered by the cigarette lighter, air moving over the window should at least keep mist clear even if it doesnt defrost it

If your car has an air conditioner turn it on as well as the heater . Air conditioned air is very dry and usually defrosts the windscreen quickly. The heat from the heater will overcome the cold air from the air/con. It is good for the air/con to be run during the winter months as well as summer, it stops the seals drying out and leaking refrigerent.

When is really cold, and vehicles with non electrical power steering start for the first time after a good period of inactivity the power steering pump tents to wine, that is normal, some other cars or almost all the cars when they pass 100.000 miles develop a little metallic noise that goes away when the oil pump distributes and lubricates all moving parts inside the engine when the car starts first thing in the morning in a really cold morning.
