Default Heater suddenly quits

It was working on Saturday, but not on Sunday. Blower works fine. Just that it blows only cool air. There doesn't seem to be any noticable tension difference in the temperature control slider, so elimanate a broken cable. Does the temperature control also work in conjunction with engine vacume as do the other parts of the AC/heater/defrost etc. ? Brrrr.

check your coolant level.

once it gets low enough, the heater wont blow hot.
I found this out on my Pathfinder.

Its the same on the vette. My 88 stopped heating, I checked the level and it was low. Guess I didn't check it often enough after the flush and fill in July :crazy:
