Re: [Chrysler300] Heater Mystery

[Ray Jones <hurst300@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Matt;
It's simple, if hot water is going thru the Core, you gotta get heat.
If the car is hot, make sure the valve is opening, work the lever by 
hand.
After cooling down, unhook both hoses. Use a garden hose to put water 
in the inlet of the core. See if you indeed have full flow thru it. 
Water should come out as fast as you are putting it in. Full flow?
Then bypass the Heater Valve. Unhook the inlet hose from the valve and 
hook it direct to the Heater Core. Since it's in your hand, look thru 
the valve and make sure it's really opening.
  Warm up the car, check the feel of the hose going in to be sure it's 
hot. If not, you don't have flow from the engine. If so, you now have 
hot water going into the heater core , and have eliminated the Valve. 
See if you have heat now, if so the valve isn't opening.

Good Luck, Ray
