Depends on what heater you're talking about.

The regular heater uses excess heat from the engine, heat that would otherwise had been removed by the radiator. And then some electricity to power a fan to spread that heat through the car.

But some cars (particularly diesels) do have extra heaters, that do run on fuel. And some electricity to pump the coolant around, to power a fan, fuel pump and ignition system for the heater.
