You just replaced the thermostat on a 1993 ford ranger but your heat still blows cold air what else could it be?
The heater valve may not be engaging or the heater core may be blocked.
Where is the heater core temperature thermostat?
The temperature of the coolant entering the heater core is controlled by the engine thermostat. The engine coolant thermostat is generally located at the engine end of the upper radiator hose.

Why does my Ford Ranger thermostat act like it is stuck open all the time and will barely heat?
you probably need to flush system including heater core.AnswerSometimes the metal in the thermostat corrodes and breaks down so the stat stays open, unable to close....causing the engine to run cool at all times and reducing the efficiency of the heater. Remove it and check it. I have the same problem, I replaced thermostat twice, flushed system and replaced sensors, it did not fix problem, still searching for an answer.^^^^ To this guy, its probly your Coolant Temp. sensor.
Replaced thermostat on 89 Ranger w 160 degree unit still runs cold heater air won't warm up gage doesn't register warm Suggestions?
Check your heater core. ANSWER I'm not a mechanic but isn't the thermostat supposed to be a 190 F unit. With a 160 F the engine would run cooler , read cooler on the guage, and the heat from your heater wouldn't get as warm as it should ( just like what happens when a 190 degree F. thermostat sticks open )
My heater will blow but not hot ive replaced the thermostat?
Check into the temperature control valve--this is different than the thermostat.
Why doesn't your 1989 ford ranger xlt heater get hot even though you just put in a new thermostat and it is full of antifreeze?
Check both the supply and return heater hoses from engine to heater for blockage or clogging: remove them and flush. Also check the inlet and outlet pipes on the engine and heater core for gunk buildup and leakage.

Your ford ranger temperature gauge drops when you turn on the defroster it is a 1991 you have replaced the thermostat and flushed the coolant twice?
The defrost is cooing your coolant by circulating the fluids through the heater core. Check the water pump to insure that its pumping and check the radiator for blockages in the fins. Also check for an air bubble that can happen when a thermostat is replaced.

How do you calibrate the thermostat on the wall not on the heater itself for in wall forced air heaters?
If a thermostat is not working properly, you cannot calibrate it. It must be replaced.
What sysrems will you see on your 97 ford ranger when the thermostat has gone bad?
If your engine thermostat sticks open it will run cooler on your temperature gauge and you won't see the temperature gauge go up to the point where your engine thermostat opens and then the temperature gauge will show a drop in temperature , your check engine light will probably come on , your gas mileage will be less , the heat from your heater probably won't get as hot If the engine thermostat were to stick in the closed position your engine will overheat ( but there are several other causes for an engine to overheat )
