2002 sonoma heat problem
My Sonoma has no heat. From what I can tell the heater core isn't plugged both line coming from it are hot. I don't here any vaccum leaks in the dash that I can here. Could the "vent doors" be stuck so the heat can't get through? Or can someone tell me where else to look?
Thanks
Thanks

Welcome to the board.
August and your worried about heat? Is your coolant system full? That is a good place to start looking. Do a little searching here and I am sure others will chime in. I am off to work. Good luck!

I'm not sure I understand completely. Is it that there's no air blowing out at all or that the air that does blow out is not hot?
If you can hear & feel air blowing out but it's not hot, it's very common for dexcool to gum up and clog the heating system (only takes a very little bit of air to contaminate dex). Even if this isn't the cause, the fix is relatively inexpensive and easy DIY project. A couple gallons of green antifreeze, a flush kit and a new radiator cap should run you under $25. Wost case your heat still doesn't work but you've upgraded your cooling system.
Good Luck.
