There are some older posts in regards to this issue, however disconnect both hoses for your heater core and totally flush it with water then refill it with coolant. MOst likely the HOAT coolant has sludged and is plugging up your heater core causing the problem. No flow = No heat.

If the heater core was plugged, it would still blow air. It would just be cold air. Sounds like you have a blower motor issue. The first thing to do is check the fuse for the blower, if that's OK check voltage before and after the switch when in the on position. If no voltage before, you have a loose or broken wire, if voltage before, but not after it's the switch. If everything checks out there, it's time to rip the dash off because the motor cannot be removed with the dash on. If you do need to replace the motor, I would kill 2 birds with one wad of money and replace the heater core too just to be safe. They're cheap, and, trust me, you don't want to remove the dash twice.

When my fan stapped working it was that the connections inside the fan speed selector on the dash wouldn't conduct. Some of the plastic around the connections had melted and coated the metal with a black goo. I got a replacement at a junk yard for $5 and havn't had a problem for 2 years

Check the fuse in the engine compartment.On the passenger side firewall.Top left corner there is a rectangular connector.There are five wires,and two hex screws. Remove the screws and pull the mount out.Check to see if its blown open.Let me know if you have any luck.

My blower stopped recently too. The connector for the ballast resistors (for the different speeds) was corroded and melted. It's located on the firewall; give it a look. Good luck.--Eric

I had the same problem in January and it was the resister. A $150 later and the problem was fix! I was not too happy, but you need the blower to work in order to drive during the wintertime in Western New York!
