Heater isn't working....

Ok my heater isn't working. I mean it blows air but its cold... No heat. Am I expecting to have to replace the heater core, because its about to be extra cold this year in Oregon, and I'm not trying to get sick again.... So could ya'll tell me whats good with this issue.

Air mix motor may be bad. If you say that it still blows air.

It seems like the flapper door is not working and allowing warm air in. I would say that either the air mix motor is bad or the logicon control of the air mix motor is bad. I haven't had the problem myself. Maybe someone else has run into this problem.

My buddy had this problem in his 87. He just rigged a coat hanger to the flapper that lets heat in. Anytime he wanted heat he would just pull the hanger or push to close for cold air.

I wanna say its your logicon. The hot and cold leaver can brake. If you search you can find write-ups about common problems with this system.

Do a little research and you could find out whats wrong with yours. I've read about the logicons and they have a few problems. My TII does nothing. I'll have to dive into it soon enough.

You may end up replacing it with another one that could have problems. I think you have to soder some connections.
