Removing the heater core is a fairly involved process including removing the steering wheel, steering column, dash, and heater box. If the core is leaking, this will need to be done. If the problem is just lack of heat, more likely the problem is operation of the blend door. Check www.heatertreater.net for diagnostic information and an inexpensive fix for the problem.

Before CHanging the Heater Core, have you tried flushing it? I have a 99' Jimmy and have to do this every year to get my heater to work.
Try flushing the coolant system out
what is the year model? 1995
how do you change the heater core on a 99 cadillac deville? I need to know, "Kaiser."
Is there any difference in replacing the heater core in the 2002 as opposed to an earlier model such as the 1997 ?...or is it pretty much the same job ?
99 Durango doesn't have a Heater Control Valve, It only has a thermostat
Yes, just connect the heater hoses together.
Your heater core might be clogged or otherwise inoperable. Videos for unclogging a heater core can be found quite easily on Youtube.
To change the heater core in a 87 ford f150 is easy. Just remove the glove box and then behind it there is 7 bolts. After you remove the 7 bolts then just remove the cover and behind it is the heater core. By far the easiest heater core I ever changed.
Burried behind the dash on the passenger side, good luck.
