How did they bypass it without connecting the two heater core hoses? Without them connecting the vehicle will over heat all the time

I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_677dced97ad9bddf

    If it hasnt overheated yet, it will once it happens. But it is a problem of your circulation.

    Thats odd, There are two hoses that need to be connected to have circulation. Without circulation you are going to hurt your engine. I would recommend a mobile mechanic or a mechanic to look at this issue for you and to repair the issue.

Bad coolant w/ leaks from many places, overheated and shut off, heater doesnt blow heat anymore

After the engine has reached normal operating temperature, feel both heater hoses going into the firewall. Are both hot? If both are hot, it's probably the door or doors in the heater case not operating from the selector knob on the dash. If only one hose is hot, the coolant is not circulating through the heater core. Look for a water valve in the hoses that is shut. If no valve, crack open the cold line to see if you can start circulation through the core. If neither hose is hot, pull off the inlet to the heater core (it may come from the cylinder head area) and run the engine and check stream flow. It won't spurt out like a garden hose, it should flow out in a smooth even stream, maybe just enough pressure to push a steady stream. If no flow comes out, coolant is low, or there is a circulation problem in the engine, like a kinked hose, a weak water pump...
Does the radiator cap hold pressure in the cooling system?

How can i troubleshoot my heater core

It's just a simple small radiator. Coolant circulates through it, and the cores' fins give off heat that is picked up by the blower motor.
When the engine is at normal operating temperature, feel the two heater hoses. Both should be hot, verifying coolant is circulating through it. If only one is hot, the core may be plugged or have an air block. You can take off the core outlet hose and observe stream flow when engine is running and heater on high heat-flow should be slow but steady. The outlet hose will run from the firewall to the front of the engine into a fitting near the water pump. Some cars have a water valve in one of the hoses-make sure it is open, for coolant to circulate.

1998 chevy blazer After the repair shop replaced the blown intake gasket, I have no heat from the heater. I took the heater hoses off and ran water thru the heater but still no heat

Is the vehicle running at normal temperature..If its running cooler than normal,then it might be the thermostat..Feel the upper radiator hose after the vehicle hot..It should be hot to touch

I have a 96 sl saturn. takes half an hour for my car to reach running temp. When i start driving the engine cools down so far, to the point i have no hot air for my heater. I replaced the thermastat, i...

replace the thermostant again this time get a hotter temp thermostant and buy it from the dealer, the other thing is that these cars are known for the temp sensors being bad this would give you the false reading on the gauge but would not affect the heat, if its taaking a long time then i would replace the stant and this time or before replacing the stant i want you to flush out the heater core, remove the hoses from the heatercore and use a water hose to flush water through the heater core, a plugged core will not throw heat or will start to allow water to flow when it gets good and hot to flow through the retricted core due to rust and crud, try the flush first and then try a new temp sensor if the flush helps the heat, hope this is helpful good luck.

A friend has a 2000 Grand Cherokee V8 Limited with 93,000 miles which has had to have radiator replaced 4 times in last 70,000 miles. It always runs hot at 212 degrees What is wrong? Help?

Check bypass hose, on THE water valve to the heater core.The watervalve may not be returning the water back to the front of the engine the back of the heads are running too warm,it has to circulate in the bypass hose or through the heater core,common for chrysler v8,s .Bypass the watervalve completely to see if it runs cooler. If not,try to find a better radiator more cooling capacity!

2002 dodge 1500 Changed radiator, thermostat, and hoses. No heat

Why was radiator replaced?Did it have heat before ? If it was plugged, the heater core may also be plugged. Try flushing it with a water hose in both directions. I dont know why the botton radiator hose would be cold, the radiator should be a uniform temp and the air coming through the radiator should be HOT, when the engine is at operating temp. What condition was the old coolant? if it was rusty, the water pump may have lower flow than normal.

When you bypass the heater core the path for the water to go through the core is gone. Correct?, you have connected to engine water line out to the engine water input? thus bypassing the heater core........

No, you just won't have water flow through the heater core, Coolant flows through the engine through the lower radiator hose as the water pump sucks it out of the radiator and pushes it through the engine. It then flows out the top radiator hose when the thermostat opens. It then flows into the radiator to cool off.

Is your heater core leaking?
