Where are the hoses attached to heater core for 1996 or newer Taurus - Sable?

Way down low, in the very middle of the firewall.
I just replaced one of mine - the metal portion of the driverside hose assembly had corroded.
You will have easy access if you have the "Vulcan" v6 engine. If you have the DOHC, plan on removing things to clear the way to get your hands down there.
Notes:
- the two heater hoses are combinations of metal & rubber hoses. One routes up to the front of the engine (passenger side) and the other heads the other way.
- The metal portions can rot away - mine had totally turned to rust right as the point where it mounted to a support bolt.
- You can find these hoses at the junkyards in excellent condition. I didn't know that before replacing mine and improvised a fix. Someday when I replace the other one, I'll redo my 'McGyver' setup.

Why would you get no heat-defrost in a 93 Ford Taurus if the blower is working and there is no leak?
See "Related Questions" below for ideas on fixing Taurus/Sable no-heat problemsAnswerMake sure you have vacuum going in the cab from the engine. The vacuum line runs from the intake to the reservoir, which is a round plastic ball looking thing, and into the cab.AnswerFeel the 2 heater hoses coming from the firewall - since the coolant runs through the heater core all the time, BOTH of the hoses should be hot.If one is not, that's a key indicator the core is plugged/obstructed.

Where is the heater control valve on a 1995 Astro and how do you replace it?
I have a 94 Astro but the heater control valve should be in the same location. Look under the hood on the passenger side. There are two heater hoses behind the coolant reservoir and windshield washer reservoir. The hoses attach to the heater control valve. The valve has a round vacuum actuator on the side, and two more heater hoses leave the control valve and go into the heater core housing. Cost for the valve will probably be somewhere between $50 & $70 To replace it, remove the coolant reservoir and the windshield washer reservoir. Remember, or mark, the hoses for the washer if you have a rear washer. The electrical connections only go on one way. Remove the clamps securing the front heater hoses and remove the hoses from the valve. Remove the clamps holding the heater hoses coming off the back of the valve where they are attached to the heater core. These two hoses are factory attached to the valve and the new valve (from the dealer) comes with the hoses attached to the rear of the valve. The clamps are back in a small space behind the valve, rather hard to get to. We pulled the bracket with the three square relays situated above the hoses to allow easier access. Install in reverse order. Good luck.
