If the heater core is bad, look for a write up on how to swap it by Grimmy on the tech sections on the home page.

You just don't got heat? Look behind yer glove box for the two levers...see if you can move them yourself and get some heat. If not...read Grimmy's article and change yer heater core...also make sure that you still have the heater core hooked up....seen that before....

Well if we're talking no fan movement then there are lots of things it could be. First of course is try another motor. Then on the side of your heater box next to the motor is a relay to kick in the fan. You can pop the cover off and try to turn on the fan and you should be able to see it close. There is the switch for your fan in the dash, the one for speed, and the main switch which turns it on and selects heat, a/c, etc. There is also a blower resistor under your dash, not sure about that but I know its there. There is also a fuse and obviously check for good connections.

Usually if its intermittent on and off then its time for a new blower motor.

Its your blower motor. Mine did that, replaced it and problem solved.

My blower motor went out also if it was your heater core you would mosti likely be able to smell it and see it. cehvk your ground for the blower motor I know my connection was looses and tightened it and it works just fine.
