Heater Problems

I don’t know what happened, but my AC blows air out perfectly. As soon as I switch to heat nothing comes out of the front, only the side vents. Is that normal, or am I having some problems?

Re: Heater Problems

Ok well since that is the case I would suggest looking under the dash at the actuators that control the blend doors and have a look at what is going on. If you find a door that is stuck or the arm broken or whatever you might be able to close/open the door manually to verify where said door directs air flow. Your problem lies somewhere under/behind that dash.
