Hello,
Just telling you guys the whole story, it might help to troubleshoot this problem......
Last year (2004), somehow radiator bottle started to leak, (i guess only bottle is leaking) it doesnt decrease the level of water in radiator because when i put the water it doesnt even take half a gallon and water starts to getting out of bottle, so i wait to see if it would decrease down, but it doesnt, unless i drive the car and it gets hot, then water evaporates, so i am assuming its only bottle, but this is not a problem. Problem is...... heater is not working this winter, it was working last year with leaked radiator bottle though.
I havent had chance to use heater all summer until today (21st October, 05), I turned on the heater and dont know what happened, didn't hear any noice or smell anything but now heater is not working, fan is blowing out cold air. and on the top of everything my car is started to over-heating since than (knob goes all the way up to Hot Red). and I am sure that car wasnt over-heating yesterday, please help !!!!
Matter of fact, sometimes temperature knob comes back to normal and than all of sudden goes up to red again, its keep on doing all day long, BTW Radiator fan is also working. I've also checked fuses 23 and 6, and all other related to heat.
so there are 2 problems
1- Heater is not working
2- Car is over heating
Please help !!!!!!!!!!
Thank you
Waqar
