At the rear of the engine from the intake manifold.
towards driver side,very low.will be 2 hoses.
It goes into the water pump. You remove a plug and screw in the block heater. Between the engine and the firewall. You can get at it from underneath.
there is a hose that goes to the block and one that goes elsewhere, there is a small stem and a larger one that is coming out of the heater core which one goes where
One goes from the heater core to the water pump, the other goes from the heater core to the intake manifold.
A malfunctioning thermostat can cause your temperature gauge to go up and then allow the gauge to go all the way down. When the thermostat is stuck closed, your engine will overheat and water will not get to your heater core. When the thermostat opens the engine cools down and water flows to the heater core.
heater core could be plugged, also check for low coolant
If the heater core in your vehicle goes out, you will not be able to use your heater or defroster. You will also notice the smell of antifreeze throughout the vehicle and possibly a film on the windshield from the antifreeze.
No, it is commonly done when heater core goes south.
YOU CAN'T, you will have to replace the heater core itself with a new one.
it is essentially a tiny radiator. hot coolant goes in and heats up the fins in the heater core and your fan blows air through the heater core thus heating up the air and you.
Generally the return line.
My suggestion is to look for a wire that has a break in the insulation. When it makes contact, the heater runs. Did the car also suffer from some blown fusesalso?
