THAT MEANS THE RADIATOR IS GETTING HOT, Probably you mean Why isn't the radiator getting hot. could be becaused the thermostat isn't opening or the house to the radiator is disconnected or there is no coolant in the radiator,
Because you dont have the engine running
The hot water heats the metal of the radiator, which heats the surrounding air. The warm air circles round the room.
There are pipes that feed from radiator to radiator. Or there can be multiple feed pipes and return pipes, it varies based on installation.
The cap is faulty, replace it.
Your hand get hot, when your blood is getting hot.
hello Can you tell me why the heater on my 2002 toyota yaris isnt working? Ive changed the thermostat,flushed out the radiator and also the heater matrix behind the dashboard is getting red hot as well
Since they run in parallel, there's no way that a heater core will cause a radiator to get hot.
Because you dont have the engine running
You don't. Wait for the engine to cool down to avoid getting burned before you open radiator cap.
You suck repairing your vehicle and most likely the radiator was either faulty or you messed it up in the process. Either that or you got a part that does not match your vehicle. got radiator from napa and had mechanic replace it also upper and lower hose and thermostat so why is it getting hot and leaking from cap?
Yep can happen as the pump isnt working then. Put on a new belt. Check level of coolant in radiator etc
It could be the thermostat. Open up the radiator cap when it is hot and see if the water is flowing in the radiator. If it is not then it may be a thermostat.
he isnt
there isnt a direct way to opem the radiator, you only have your fill bottle on the drivers side.
You say it's running hot, so i am assuming you have hot water in the radiator. If the thermostat was not opening, there would be no hot water in the radiator. Since the temperature sensor is on the engine, it reads the temp of the water in the engine. (Not in the radiator). The fact you have over heating tells me the water is getting hot but the sensor is not reflecting that. I would say it's either the sensor, or the gauge.
air locked
no it isnt. its hot && humid.
