Never touch the radiator cap unless the vehicle is ICE COLD. The job of your Frontier’s thermostat is to regulate the temperature of the engine. It does this by allowing water to enter the engine when it is getting hot, and by keeping coolant from entering while the vehicle warms up.

How does the heater work on a Nissan Navara?
At the simplest level possible, the heater works by passing hot coolant from the engine into a tiny radiator called the heater core. At this point, the blower motor blows air across the it and the newly heated air blows on to the driver and passengers. If the heater has stopped working in your Navara, this process has failed in one way or another.
Why is the lower radiator coolant not reaching the heater?
You might know that if the thermostat is not able to provide a signal to the car that the engine is hot, the coolant will not drive to the heater and the air will remain cool. As a result, the coolant will not reach the lower radiator and will produce cool air only.
Why is my car heater not working properly?

The heater core needs to be right next to the fan that pushes the air through your ventilation system. That fan needs to be near the firewall of your car so it can have the ability to both pull air in from outside the vehicle, or recirculate the air in the cabin depending on the settings of the system.
Why does my car heater not turn on?
Trapped air can be in the core, but it blows out with increased water pump pressure. It does not make sense that the trapped air re-establishes itself every time you reach a stop sign.

What to do if your heater is blowing cold air?
If the heater starts blowing cold air again, repeat the process (I’ve never had to repeat).

Also agree with low coolant – but why is coolant low?

Start the engine with cap still open and let the engine idle for a few minutes. If the coolant level should drop as the thermostat opens, top it up as necessary. This should bleed off the air bubble.

Why does my air conditioner keep blowing cold air?
Heater valves: These valves control the heat output of the heater core. They can be mechanical or vacuum-operated (like a rotary knob that you turn) or electronic (in electronic climate control systems with specific temperature settings). A valve that is stuck in the closed position will prevent heat from entering the cabin.
