Heat blows cold air front and rear when sitting still or @ low mph.

When sitting still @ norm. operating temp, Heat blows cold air front and rear. At around 35 to 40 mph, the heat will blow warm to hot air. Slower than 35 and it goes back to blowing cold air until you speed back up.

Usually a sign of low coolant or a blockage in the circulation.

SOURCE: 2004 Sebring: The heater blows hot air only at

Hi:
One thing to consider is your thermostat and water pump. If somehow, your thermostat is stuck open, your engine won't get up to temperature. Also, a bad waterpump won't move coolant thru the heater core. Both of these situations should show up on your engine temperature, making it hot or cold...but sometimes they don't show up if your driving pattern doesn't tax the engine..My daughter's car had a bad electric cooling fan , and never was a problem, unless she was stuck in traffic...

SOURCE: 2001 pt cruiser no heat

did you check the fluid level by removing the rad. cap? Radiator should be full to top. If Chryslers are low on coolant, the heater will not blow warm air.

Have you checked the coolant level? If it's low, it will result in diminished heat, and could be the problem.

low coolant level can cause this condition, when the engine is cold, check your coolant level. if it is full you may have a bad head gasket, have that checked by your favorite repair shop

My daughters expedition 2005 rear air blows hot air until she drives on the highway above 60 then it gets cold. The front blows cold all like it is supposed to. Could it be the expansion valve?

First make sure that the ac system is full of freon. Hook up a set of gauges to see what kind of pressures you have. 35-45 low side and 250-375 high side depending on the ambient temp. The rear expansion valve could be bad but also the heat / cold actuator could be bad. Watch this video.

Front and rear blow little to no heat

If you know for sure the thermostat is working, it could be low on coolant and has air pockets in the system. Only one radiator hose should be warm until the engine reaches normal temp, and both heater hoses should be very warm.

02 navigator front heater blows cold air

Sounds like the blend door or blend motor is not functioning/opening. This door allows the heat/cold air to come in by adjusting open, closed or anywhere in-between for temp. Start there. They are usually vacuum controlled and mounted under the front dashboard near the knee board.

How can I determine if my compressor is out on my

If you still get cold air out of the rear vents but the front only blows hot air you may have a bad temp door actuator in the dash, it may be stuck on hot and not able to move to cold air. However if you are low on freon with a truck that has front and rear ac then there will be a temp diff between the two. If it is hot air out the front like the heat is on then you have that actuator problem but if it is cool air about the same as the outside air temp then you may be low on freon.

Front heat works, but rear blows cold air only

With your front heat working the most likely cause for the rear heat not to work is that there is an obstruction in the line that is preventing the warm coolant to get to the rear heater core or the rear heater core itself is plugged and not circulating. Another possible cause could be low coolant level where the system has enough coolant to provide the front system with enought warm coolant but not the rear system. Hope this helps
