🌡️ Thermostat Replacement
The thermostat controls the engine's temperature by regulating coolant flow. If it malfunctions, it can cause the engine to overheat or run too cold.
Symptoms:
➜ Engine overheating
➜ Poor engine performance (sluggish acceleration, reduced fuel efficiency)
➜ Engine slow to warm up or not reaching optimal temperature
➜ Coolant leaks under the vehicle or from the engine.
Repair Service: Thermostat replacement restores optimal engine temperature and prevents further damage.
❄️ Heater Blower Motor Repair
The blower motor circulates hot air through your vehicle’s cabin. If it stops working, you’ll notice no warm air or inconsistent airflow.
Symptoms:
➜ No warm air from the vents
➜ Unusual grinding, squeaking sounds
➜ Fan works intermittently or only at certain speeds
➜ Burning smells from the motor.
Repair Service: Blower motor replacement restores proper airflow and ensures consistent heating performance. If you're experiencing issues with the AC airflow, see about our AC repair and refill to ensure your car is ready for any season.
🌬️ Heater Core Replacement
The heater core is responsible for transferring heat to the cabin. If it fails, it can lead to poor heating or coolant leaks inside the vehicle.
Symptoms:
➜ Weak or no heat from the vents
➜ Foggy windows due to moisture
➜ Sweet smell of antifreeze in the cabin
➜ Puddles of coolant inside the vehicle
➜ Overheating engine
Repair Service: Heater core replacement involves removing the old heater core and installing a new one to restore efficient heating.
⚡ Car Heater Electrical Repair
Electrical problems within the heating system, such as a malfunctioning temperature control or faulty wiring, can prevent the heater from functioning properly.
Symptoms:
➜ Heater blowing air at inconsistent temperatures (too hot or too cold)
➜ Heater turns on/off randomly
➜ Strange smells (burning or electrical odors)
➜ Failure to adjust fan speed.
Repair Service: Electrical system diagnosis and repair, including faulty sensors, relays, or wiring, to ensure proper heater operation.

💬 Heater Service: FAQs
Wondering about car heater service or repair? Here’s what you should know to stay warm on the road.
Why did my car heater stop working?
There are several reasons why your car’s heater might stop working. The most common fixes are a heater motor replacement or addressing coolant supply issues. Here are the main causes:
Coolant Leak: Low coolant levels prevent the heater core from circulating heat.
Heater Core Problems: If the heater core is blocked or leaking, it won’t circulate heat to your cabin.
Heater Blower Motor Failure: If the blower motor isn't working, no warm air will blow into the cabin.
Radiator Issues: A faulty radiator may affect the entire heating system.
Faulty HVAC Controls: Small components, such as switches and valves, can fail and stop the heater from functioning.
Thermostat Failure: A stuck or faulty thermostat can stop the heating system from engaging.
How to Identify the Problem: If your car’s engine is warm but the vents are blowing cold air, your heater or engine coolant is likely the issue. In some cases, a malfunctioning water pump can cause coolant to bypass the heating system, resulting in no heat in the cabin.
Should I repair or replace my heater blower motor?
When to Repair vs. Replace: If the motor is just malfunctioning, a repair might suffice. However, if it’s completely stopped working or the motor is beyond repair, replacement is necessary. If you're unsure, we can inspect your system and determine the best course of action.
Why is my car heater blowing cold air?
This could be due to low coolant levels, a faulty thermostat, a clogged heater core, or a malfunctioning blend door.
How much does it cost to fix a car heater?
Costs vary based on the problem. A simple fix like adding coolant is cheap, but a heater core replacement can be several hundred dollars.
How long does a car heater repair take?
Basic repairs can take under an hour, while more complex fixes like replacing a heater core may take several hours or more.
How do I know if my heater motor is bad?
Signs include no airflow, weak airflow, or strange noises when the heater is on. If the motor is not working, your car won’t produce heat.
