Heater doesn't work... IT'S FREEZING!!

Alright... I Garaged (parked in my yard) my 1992 Eclipse GS with hopes of getting a turbo this summer.. Once again my hopes and dreams are shattered.. and i won't be getting a Turbo DSM this summer nor this year.... and i can't keep relying on my G/F for rides.. so.. I have to take out my GS, spends some money on repairs, for some means of transportion this summer... Anywayz.. My heater doesn't work.. It'll blow out warm air for like..say.. 15 seconds after i turn it on.... then it'll turn cold... I haven't checked any fuses yet... I'll start there in the morning.. but.. is there anything else i may need to look into?? I'm Freezing!!... Thanks guys

So the blower motor keeps running but you aren't getting any heat?

Check your coolant level in your radiator. If theres not enought coolant, the heater has noting to get heat from therefore blows cold air.

Your thermostat could also be stuck open.

With checking your coolant level in the radiator(Properly, opening throttle), you would notice if there is a problem with the thermostat.

Re: Heater doesn't work... IT'S FREEZING!!

Additionally, it wouldnt get warm in the first place to give heat, then cool down. It would always blow cold air. A good suggestion none the less

I'm going to go with coolant level for now.
