Heater Controls Not Working

Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

Question: MY HEATER IS NOT WORKING.THERE IS NO HEAT COMING FROM THE FRONTS VENTS WHEN
I TURN THE SWITCH ON, IT ONLY BLOWS THROUGH THE TOP VENTS. WHAT CAN I DO?

 

Answer: The problem is probably behind the dash between the controls and the valve which controls where the air comes out. This is usually a cable on older vehicles, and an electric motor on some newer vehicles. I do not know for sure which style you have, but a quality repair manual will be able to give you diagrams and procedures for troubleshooting the system.

Fuel Injector cleaner in an empty tank.

Question: What will happen if you put the fuel injection or carburator cleaner in a almost empty tank? Will the car still run ok?

 

Answer: Most cleaners are combustible, so putting a bottle in an empty tank should not cause any problems.
