Hi Guys, I am having problem with my Heater on a Yukon 2000 SUV, I have replaced the thermostat and flashed the Core, The core was clean and nothing in there.

there is enough coolant in the cooling system, What else can it be?

All this happened after i replaced the fuel pump, to replace the fuel pump i had to disconnect the battery, and i think it has something to do with that, but not sure what.

I check all fuses and they all look ok as well

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

I knew a Heather I'd like to have had a problem with. Blond hair, green eyes you could get lost in... and tiny little waist and cute wiggle when she walked and giggle when she talked.

I went out with a Heather a few times. She had a short fuse so I didn't check it often. As I recall, I always enjoyed flashing her core! :loser:

So this is what I did and still it below medim warm air, it is hoter then outside, but it is lukewarm, I took 3 fuses out ,HVAC under the dashboard, HVAC FR and HVAC BK, let the car sit for a good 15 to 20 minutes, put the fuse back in, start the car, let it run for good 2 to 3 minutes , turn off the car remove key open door and close, still just warm air, not hot, it is like 75 or so.

What else can it be?

 

Thanks

So your heater worked flawlessly before you disconnected the battery for the fuel pump replacement? Plenty of heat coming out? If so, I'd try the procedure again. This time disconnect the battery. Let it sit. Then re-connect. Turn the key on. Don't start it. Don't attempt to adjust any controls. Let the HVAC do whatever it wants to do. Just stay hands off. Wait a couple of minutes. Key off. You can try the key out and open and close the door thing. Then try starting it and taking it for a spin. Sometimes the procedure may need to be performed a couple of times. Someone with a Tech 2 can do the calibration for you.

 

You could have a blend door that has failed.

 

Is your engine running at the normal position on the temp gauge as it always has?

I took the car to a repair shop and he could not fix it, but he told he had a scan tool and he can turn on the heater with the scan tool, he says the temp in the car show's 104 so that is why the heater will not come on, but on his scan tool he does not have an option to reset the Hvac,

he tells me to take it to the dealer, any idea why it would sens wrong temp?

I will try to do batter trick when I get home

Thanks a millon guys, the battery trick did it.

I use the battery method. Hasn't failed me yet.

 

Note: Anytime you disconnect the battery, follow the steps to let the calibration run its course.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
