heater 94 t-bird
man it is like 0 degrees out side and my heater only blows cold air i don't know if it would be a sensor; a blendor door; or a heater core. the thermostat is good because the top hose was hot and my gauge went up like normal. and i am tired of driving it and being freezing cold plus i have a daughter i need to keep warm.

Re: heater 94 t-bird
A quick test. With the engine at normal operating temperature, temp dial set to hottest and the blower off feel both heater hoses. They should be about the same temp. If one is colder it indicates a blocked heater core.

Re: heater 94 t-bird
You might still be low on coolant. Not low enough to affect the temp sensor, but low enough you are not pushing coolant through the heater core.

Re: heater 94 t-bird
If they are they same then it is probably a bad controller.

Re: heater 94 t-bird
Do you have manual A/C Heater or Automatic Temperature Control and are both of the hoses I asked you about the same temperature or not?

Re: heater 94 t-bird
I'm not talking about the radiator hoses which I think you are when you say the top hose is getting hot.

Re: heater 94 t-bird
I don't know if a '95 has a self test or not but try this: Position the blower control knob at AUTO and the Function Selector knob to either PANEL or FLOOR. Then press and release the COOL and OUTSIDE TEMP buttons simultaneously and, within 2 sec, press and release the WARM button. The display should a tracer segment going in a counterclockwise direction during the self test. At the end of the self test trouble codes will be displayed. If there are no faults the whole display will illuminate. To exit the self test press the COOL button. Leave the ignition on at least 30 sec after you exit the self test so that the system can recalibrate itself. Let me know what code numbers show up. Your only problem now is the inside temp of the car MUST be between 50-90 degrees F for the test to work. I hope you have a heated garage or that it warms up soon!
