Sounds like the actuator on the drivers side is not operating properley. To check it out, remove the panel under the steering wheel, reach up to the actuator arm and try to move it to its bottom position, if heat comes out you solved the problem.

How do you fix the driver side heater on a 1997 Cadillac Catera if it is not blowing heat?

The problem is in the controler. TAke it to the dealer. The problem is likely one of the 5 actuators under the dash. There is one for the passenger and one for the drivers side. When you move the temp setting, you should hear them moving. If not, one may need adjusting or replacing.

What is the oil separator in a Cadillac Catera 1998?

are you referring to the 'heat exchanger' under the intake, sitting on top of the motor (where you can't see it)? sometimes people refer to it as an 'oil cooler' as well, but that's misleading as there's a tranny cooler near the radiator. it's probably the first. fairly easy to change, and if your's is bad or leaking, you MUST update it by putting the new design exchanger in NOW! go to cadillacforums.com and join (or look at) the catera/cimarron forum and you'll find your answer. i positively guarantee it.

Why is there heat blowing out the passenger side but not on drivers side of the 98 Cadillac Catera?

I would guess the actuator on the drivers side is not working, take off the panel under the steering wheel. feel up under the dash to the arm of the actuator and pull it down to its bottom position, if this gives you heat, the actuator would seem to be the problem. Replace it a great expense and work, or drill a hole in the plastic arm, without breaking it, feed a piece of stiff wire through it and pull in down and tight, leave it that position if you have heat.

You might also notice that the passenger side air is slightly warmer than the drivers side. Try to flush the heater core, it might be clogged.

Why would the passenger heat and air in a 2000 Catera seem to have a vent open to the outside air at all times while the drivers side works perfectly?

I believe there is a vent in side of the glove compartment, you can open and close it there. Slide it from side to side. Possible programmer malfunction needs to be checked out.


No ac or heat on 1998 Cadillac Catera compressor runs blower works took to dealer says needs cabin filters replaced outside air temp sensor broken you replace eng cab filters and sensor doesn't help?

I had the same experience with Buick Park Ave. Compressor blew and evaporator got plugged with oil and?? You could try removing the blower motor and reaching inside to evaporator and try to clean as best you can, may get some air circulation.
