It is inside the heating A/C housing. The dash has to come out to get to it. A very involved repair. Even the most experienced master mechanics cringe at having to do a heater core repair. I would suggest putting some aluminum stop leak in the radiator. It will stop the leak in the heater core and will save you the grief of pulling the dash out.
No , if you were to bypass the heater core , you would have no heat
Ruptured heater core.
To replace the heater core of a Ford Escort, all years, the dash has to come out. This is a job even the most veteran mechanics will cringe at. Take it somewhere to get it done.
Disconnect heater core inlet and outlet hoses - couple them together
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.
The 1995 Ford Escort series of vehicles have a conventional heater core design and location. The heater hoses through the firewall are on the right-front (passenger) side of the vehicle.?æ
On my '93 ford escort 1.9L, it is located under the dash, behind the heater control assembly.
how hard is it to replace a heater core on a 87 325e BMW 2 dr? thank you in advance.
It sounds like you have a bad heater core. I would recommend replacing it.
Dash has to come out to access it. This job is so involved that even vereran mechanics cringe at a heater core removal.
The dash has to be removed to gain access to the heater box. The heater box then comes out and is split open to replace the core.
The dash must be completely removed in order to gain access to the heater box. Then the heater hoses are disconnected and the heater box is removed and opened up. That gains access to the heater core for relacement.
