Let’s break down getting no heat

what motor?

 

I could not think of the actual name earlier.
The blend door actuator.

 

i dont think my car has this as its all cable managed

 

Top off the coolant level and see if the heat improves

 

I can't figure out how to add the link here but if you put. " climate control/vent issue " in the search there a thread that explain the blend door issue with the cables

all cables

 

topped off the coolant, replace the relay change the thermostat no heat

 

do I need to un click the AC button for heat to happen

 

I recall you saying both the inlet and outlet hoses at the heater core were hot, correct? If so, I'd like you to locate your air mix damper. One of the cables off the heater control should be going to it (air mix control cable). This is what controls wether or not air is blown across the heater core or the ac evaporator. If the damper is stuck it won't matter if the coolant is flowing through the heater core or not, you won't get hot air.

 

where is it normally located?

 

I was told it’s under the passenger dash but when I took it off and looked under there, I didn’t see it

 

I know the electronically actuated valves are under the passenger side dash. Not entirely sure about the cable operated door. Might have to just follow the cable off the heat control.
