Thank you for the help. I am 55 year old single female. I did not have hundreds of dollars to send my car to the shop. I put in a new blower fan all by myself thanks to your information.... I am proud of myself and only had to spend 40 bucks for the fan.

Thank you so much for posting these videos I Am A 42-year-old single female with little to no mechanical knowledge LOL 😆 I mean I can change a Tire and Oil but that's about it... Being only a week after Christmas & a legit single mother (kids father passed away) & my oldest birthday in less than 2 weeks every penny i can scrape up comes out to be less than $100 and had me feeling pretty bummed & stressed especially since temps dropped to extreme lows 2 days ago. All i was hoping n praying for was a fair shot at an attempt to not only provide my kids with a warm vehicle to school each morning but also 1 their mother could actually see out the windshield of bcuz it had become down right dangerous with the freezing 🥶 Temps windshield wasn't thawing no matter how long I "warmed" the car up😔feeling almost defeated I gave it 1 last shot n started googling and there u were!!

Chris, it's been 6 years since you posted this. And recently my car started taking forever to warm up the air now that's it's cold out. First thing I remembered was this video that I watched a good 3-4 years ago. I just wanted to say thank you! My car now has hot air blowing during these cold mornings/evenings! It turned out that my car was just low on anifreeze/coolant. Thankfully, it's all that the car needed. No, I don't have a leak, it just normal evaporation that exits from the reservoir. But it also shows how often I look under the hood, and this situation reminded me that it was past due that I checked under the hood. Thanks again!

A gauge in the middle doesn't always mean the thermostat is good. On the 97 ranger I used to have, the temperature sending unit was on the RADIATOR side of the thermostat. When the thermostat stuck shut, all the coolant was pushed into the overflow reservoir, what few pockets of coolant remained in the engine boiled like crazy, but the gauge never showed overheating. It only measured the cool water that was trapped between the radiator and the engine. That design flaw aside, the ranger was so well built that it lasted more than a year after that, and when I finally retired it (at 297,000) I drove it to the place where I traded it in.

Did EXACTLY what my dude here recommended: Buy coolant specific to my Lexus RX300, head home, go to bed, letting the engine go completely cold by morning.. Wake up, look at the reservoir (which was slightly above the L aka low level), fill up the reservoir with coolant to the F aka full level, start the vehicle and wait until the engine was warm, turned on the heater and PRESTO: Instant fix and running exactly as it was before! Thanks my dude for setting me on the right path!

Thank you for this video Chris. My brothers used to race cars and taught me when I was young how to fix my own cars. I changed a water pump and for the life of me. I could not get the temp above 110 and only cold air inside. Air Lock! After getting Tourettes and then, up to and including writing a very strongly worded letter to GMC, I finally calmed down and looked closer and realized I was not getting water into my heater core which was not allowing water to the T-stat, so it would not open allowing more coolant in. And then I found your video. I do feel better after writing GMC, but I probably should have looked here first. I am sure some engineer that gets paid $375,000.00 a year is feeling like a total loser after reading what I wrote.

Last week, Carsmart told us that it needed a new fan blower and resistor. A nice mechanic in Walmart auto (when I got an oil change) said to order the parts on Amazon and watch a youtube video and do it ourselves. So I ordered a resistor for $14 and a blower for $37 at Amazon. The one company sent the WRONG blower, too small. So he was only able to put in the resistor. And it did the job!!! We now have heat! It's incredible! I'm just sharing this because my son has never worked on cars before (age 22) but replacing it wasn't that difficult of a job. I wish everyone the best at having heat, so they don't blow their circuits like I did trying a portable window defroster! :P Maybe do like me-- take it to a shop and pay a $50 diagnostic fee, and then just do it yourselves. (I don't know why they said it needed a blower though. I'm hoping it wasn't Car Smart being dishonest---- but that it's just hard to diagnose which one is the problem. (Does anyone know if it's hard to tell which is bad?)

Like many young people her reaction was, "well, I have to go to the dealership for diagnostics, so why should I watch this?" What I told her and advice that I would give to anyone is that sometimes people lie. It is always a good idea to have some understanding of a situation before you go in.

Don’t forget about the Cabin Air Filter(s). Even my mom could check/change those 👍👍. I like to check the easiest fix first. Lol. My problem was poor air flow, but I had heat so maybe that’s why it wasn’t mentioned in this particular video. I used to fix planes, but never had ANY desire to work on cars. But in this day and age, it’s time to start doing car stuff myself. Some problems are things that people can do themselves. There is so much info on the internet it’s crazy not to at least search for a simple solution. 👍. I never knew there were filters right inside my glovebox 🤦♀️🤦♀️. As I changed them, I wondered “I wonder how many people have been charged 100s of dollars to have their heating fixed and had no idea all the shop did was change the filter(s)!!” This video is SO informative and done very well!!! Even if a person doesn’t want to work on their own vehicle, it’s still a great idea to know how things should work and what the different parts are for. You explain normal and abnormal operation so well and do a fantastic job of showing us where the parts are!! And how to troubleshoot!! Changing the air filters helped my problem a lot. But this video has given me so much basic knowledge about the system operation that I feel confident I can troubleshoot and fix/change parts in the future if needed. It has also helped me to realize I really should pop the hood more often and look at some of these things every now and then myself. It’s so easy to let things go in the busy world we live in. But the few minutes to check some stuff can save many hours, headaches, and $$$$ later on down the road 👍👍👍. This is the first video of yours I have seen, but I will be subscribing! Thank you for being awesome and sharing your knowledge!! You are a great instructor 👍.

Still a great video to this day. I went through the complete video, replaced the blower motor resistor per the symptoms. The blower continued acting screwy throughout the different switch positions, then finally found that the culprit was the actual fan speed switch contacts had welded closed in the high speed position. Replaced the switch, and voila! Fan speeds work again! Thanks a bunch for stepping us through the entire system, definitely makes troubleshooting easy when you know how something is supposed to work. 👍

What a great video! I have a 2015 Mustang, whose heater started randomly blowing cold, hot, nothing. At first, I thought it could be one of the actuators under the dash controlled by the temperature knob or a fuse, etc. Turned out to be a small leak in a radiator hose. This caused the overflow reservoir to empty. The low coolant sensor that monitors the overflow reservoir then caused my heater to quit working properly. Never thought it would be anything like this. Easy fix to replace hose.
