I recently bought a 1992 Grand Prix and the heater died but the rear defrost still works Any suggestions?

The rear defrost is electric. The heater works off the hot water in your radiator running thru it and a fan blowing the heat into your compartment.. check your thermostat, it could be that your heater core isn't getting and water to it, that is were your car get's it't heat from, if not that it could be lack of water

Can you use hot water to defrost ice on heat pump?

No, hot water will just make it worse. Hot water is actually used to make ice rinks on snow or ice. Use a hair dryer or a space heater. Its a sign of other issues such as a leak or defective defrost cycle. Its important to have it taken care of quickly.


You turn on heat or defrost engine temperature goes down?

This is possible but only really if the engine is already at normal operating temperature, and if it is really THAT cold outside. The fact is, If you turn on the heat or defrost (which is also the heater) Then that outlets another heat emitting source for the engine since it uses the hot coolant to heat the heater coil thus making the air blow hot from the vents. Think of it as a second radiator, just smaller. Also this could be something that could happen if there is a problem with the thermostat sticking at high open (but usually that means the engine is running as hot as it's supposed to or hotter anyway). If this is happening in temperatures above 55 degrees Fahrenheit, a replacement of the engine thermostat is recommended.
