SOURCE: 1995 Chevy k1500 heater problems.

For a 95 Chevy Silverado....I replaced the Blend Door Actuator on the passenger side. Just behind the slide out cup holder. Yo ucan acces easily by removing the ash tray piece and the glove box....Or just the glove box and work like hell to get a socket in a tight place.

There are 2 actuators....one controlling the (Mode and Temp 89018681) and the other the (Air Inlet 89018367). I called the dealer and the parts were 85-125. I got it From TBA Auto (local store) for 39.00. A 20 min job at most.

SOURCE: Blower blows weak with A/C on; When A/C is off blows strong

This is not a blend door problem. It is a problem w/ your AC / Heater blower motor Resistor. When this goes out some vehicles will blow intermitantly. Others will blow strong in the low position and low on high. On my 2004 Silverado the resistor is located under the glove box mounted w/ 4 screws. It is a small black box no larger than a cigarette package. Laying flat on the floorboard look up and towards the center you shouldn't be able to miss it. Easy to change, simply plug the new one in and screw back in place. Took me 5 min.

SOURCE: my heater stoped blowing hot air.antifreeze level

If the blower is blowing air just fine, but you cannot control the temperature, you need to listen to air coming from the vents while turning the temperature from hot to cold. If you do n ot hear any change in airflow, then you may a temperature door in the dash broken. this is becoming a common problem on the Equinox and Pontiac Torrent,

SOURCE: I have a 99 K1500 Suburban with a weak 4l60e

yes. 96-99 are the same. 95 are different. 94-88 are the same. thats the most i can tell you off the top of my head. As long as the trannis are the same type they'll fit. For example a 700r4 from an 86 will fit into a 88 with a minor adjustment. But an 86 700r4 will not fit into a 86 that had a TH-400 without major changes. So as long as they're both 4L60E within the years mentioned above they'll interchange just fine.

97 K1500 passenger side floorboard gets soaking wet with really hot water. No sign of leaks in hoses or radiator and air conditioning drain is draining. Help??

Check the heater core it has a leak in it. Is the radiator losing antifreeze or a small amount at a time. Then it would be the heater core if no other leaks are showing.

You may two problems and one symptom. you may have a blend door problem that is not allowing air to circulate threw the heater core. also you may have a bad connection or weak coolant temp sensor showing you erratic readings and it may have nothing with the heat in the vehicle. you need to eliminate or separate the one of the the problems to diagnose your one symptom.

I just changed thermostat, and replaced coolant, still my 1995 gmc suburban blows cold air.

Find the two heater hoses going through the firewall to the heater core both need to be hot at operating temp. If both are hot the problem will be inside with the heater control. I only one heater hose is hot the
problem will be the heater core. I am assuming you have bled all the air out of the cooling system.

Heat dont work might be bad hoses or put on wrong need diagram on how it goes 1993 Chevy K1500 getting sick of the cold

The hoses are two different sizes.One will be 3/4 and the other 5/8.No way to mix them up.May be your blend door not opening alowing air to flow across your heater core.I am not sure if there is a mixing/control valve.Feel both heater hoses as well as your top radiater hose just to make sure that the thermostate is not bad.You can look on napaonline.com and search "heater"to get a look at the door motor.You can remove it and open it by hand to see if you get heat.Well hope this helped.

1995 GMC suburban temp guage pegs high, but heater

Sounds like there may be an air pocket in the system.
Try 'burping' the system. If this still doesn't fix the problem, check the temperature of the heater core hoses (in and out) The inlet should be fairly cool, the other should be piping hot. If they're both cold; the heater core has an internal blockage.

Next, replace the thermostat with a winter (180-195 F) derivative.
Bleed the system accordingly, and keep me posted!
