Try some comma's?
my wild guess, is you are trying to fix a dead cab heater, right?
and if so, can be caused by 5 things wrong. total.
1 engine coolant not hot (180F or more)
2; fan dead.(cab heater fan)
3:or core , coolant path blocked. (seems you)
4; core exterior core blocked with leaves or pin needles. (sucked in)
5: optional core valve , stuck closed. (cable bad, etc)\



one pipe hot , means ,? core pipe 1 is hot, and other is dead cold?
this flow blockage , bingo !

if pipe 1 is 180F and other is 120f this is normal the heater is heating air in the cab and is dropping due to this heat exchange. (normal)
so why not do the 2 year full flush service now. (skipped i bet)
core hoses:
remove the 2 hoses on engine side, never core side (easy damage)
then back flush both hoses. with a garden hose.
if there is a valve there, test it and make sure it's opening... and free flowing.
and that both engine water ports are open too, from heater hose
to engine. (yes, they pack up too)

1999 Dodge Dakota V6 heater problems! I flushed the heater core, did not help. I tried putting a T in top heater hose, connected the hot side heater hose did not help.

Question edited for clarity and fix the text and add some spaces.
Question moved to model category.

This is usually cause by air locks. When you have air in the system, the heater core doesn't fill with coolant and doesn't circulate. If you add coolant and you are on a driveway with the front of the vehicle down a few degrees, the heater core doesn't fill.

Another outside possibility is that the impeller on the water pump is worn out.

The device works but create no heating

What device . The car heater
check lever from control panel is connected to valve that is at back of heater unit. To create heat the hot water is piped into the heater from the engine bay. If the valve doesn't get changed the hot water is shut off to the heater core. Another cause could be a blockage in the pipes going from the engine bay into the heater core inside the car's heater

I have a 1992 toyota camry le with a 3.0 v6. I'm having an issue with the heating system. It blows somewhat of warm air and not hot air? The engine warms up to normal operating temp. Do i need to change...

I would start by checking the hoses at the heater core. One should be hot the other cooler but still pretty warm. If one is hot and 1 is a lot cooler you probably have a plugged heater core. You can also check to see if you hear the blend door slamming and check air temp change when you switch from full cold to full hot. If there isn't a clunk at full hot or cold the door might be stuck.

I have a jaguar s type , year 2000 , the heater is only blowing cold air

Sounds like your heater core could be blocked up or a blockage in the pipes. Most car heaters run off a heater core that cycles hot water from the engine's water jacket, or a heat exchanger around the exhaust manifold, through the core, with a fan then blowing this hot air through the vents to you. If the pipes from the water jacket to the heater core are blocked then no hot water will get through. Alternatively, the heater core or pipes may be damaged and leaking. Check to ensure you're not losing any coolant. If it's the heater core, there's really nothing for it but to replace it. I'm not 100% sure where it would be on your car, on my old car it was up behind the centre console, under the dash. Hope that helps. Cheers, John

'89 Maxima car heater stops blowing warm/hot air

You will have an 'in' and an 'out' hose going to the heater core. Run engine until hot, these two pipe should be both quite hot, if the out pipe feels cooler than the in pipe then it would seem the core is blocked. You say you have no leaks so maybe it would be worth removing both heater pipes, fix one side up to the water main and gently pass water through it. Hopefully lots of Brown sludge should come out.
If both pipes feel hot then the core should be ok. This means it will be an air-distribution fault and maybe the flap is stuck that changes it from hot to cold air.

Heater wont get hot

Make sure the temp door is moving when you change the temp.then change the thermostat out with a new one.Bleed the system of all the air in the cooling system.If still,no heat,remove the heater hoses from the heater core,and flush the heater core out with a water hose.In one pipe,it will flush out the other pipe of the heater core.

Engine overheats when heater pipes connected

I think you could be right about there being air trapped in the system.
Or the heater core(radiator) is plugged.
Either way you need a pressurized radiator coolant pump to put the coolant in without air being trapped.
Although,i have seen it done by jacking the vehicle up high enough that the radiator was now higher than the heater core level, and then the coolant was put in.
But this is dangerous to try.
