Default Heater Question

Tonight I took the 72 out for a parade. It was cool so I turned the heater on. I could feel the blower working but no heat. Has anyone got any ideas on what the problem may be. Thanks in advance

The valve that opens the water flow to the heater core most likely is not working and did not open. :cheers: :seeya

Check in the engine compartment, on the passenger side, a heater hose so go into the firewall and also have a return line out of the firewall. The previous owner of my vette disconnected the heater hose from the firewall and spliced them together to keep heat out of the passenger compartment.

I just had the same problem. Mine was at the controls in the console. The cable end that connects to the H-C dial had slipped off. Simple fix that took me way to long to figure out. If the dial feels easy to move it could be the same problem.
