Heater issues
Posted: Mon Dec 14, 2015 9:18 am
Hi all,
since the cold weather has kicked in I've noticed that my heater does not blow warm at all. This includes running engine for 40 mins as well (so I don't think it's a case of not reaching right temp).
Not sure if linked, but last year I used to hear a clicking /cranking noise from behind the dash on start up, but I found that this didn't happen if I had the heater set to cold.
I've done a few searches on Internet and can only see this issue resolved when it's a lot earlier year, not this model. I'm not sure if it's a heater solenoid or the heater controls I need to replace, or if something totally different. Every part I see for the solenoid replacement is for the previous model, so not sure if something else is used now. I did check the coolant level a week or so ago, and noticed that this was very slightly below the min level, and topped it up to max.
FYI it's a 2009 titanium with auto temp controls.
Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Many thanks
