Why is my Chevy Suburban heater not working?
Is there isn’t enough line pressure, due to low coolant, then the heater core will not be able to get any coolant itself. You can verify this by checking the coolant level by taking a peek at the overflow reservoir. The overflow reservoir will be connected to the radiator by a tube coming from the top (usually right by the radiator cap).

Why did my Jeep Liberty overheat in Alaska?
If you have just straight concentrated coolant it can cause heat exchange issues because water retains heat so much better and releases it. If you replaced the thermostat and added a 50/50 ratio of coolant and water (or 70/40 of coolant and water if you live in cold climate such at Alaska) and there is no air in the cooling system.
What kind of coolant does a Jeep Liberty use?
Water pump: Pumps coolant through the cooling system (when the thermostat opens) creates flow and is always pumping or cycling coolant. Heat exchangers or more commonly radiator or heater core: These give off heat to the air that goes through the radiator or heater core. Coolant: a 50/50 mix of coolant and water is required.

Why is my Chevy Impala heater not working?
If you have a heater core that clogged, it’s not going to be able to pass coolant through. Without the warm coolant going through it, there can be no heat. A bad heater core can also leak, so watch out for that. Feel your passenger floorboard to see if it’s wet. Heater core’s are typically pretty affordable.
Why is the fan not working on my Jeep Liberty?

Why is the air blower on my Jeep not working?
I will start the Jeep and the air blows fine, then without rhyme or reason it completely stops (there is no specific duration between work/failure). Depending on the length of the trip, it may come back on again. I replaced the blower motor resistor and I thought that fixed the problem, but unfortunately it did not.
Where is the blower connector on a jeep?
The blower motor sits right next to the resistor or controller (resistor is for manual AC, controller is for automatic AC system), so the connector can be found on the blower motor itself. Since the state of the blower changes after switching ignition off/on, the problem can be inside the AC control panel.

Why does my 2010 Jeep Liberty not defrost?
I have a 2010 jeep liberty. It will not switch from defrost to vents or floor. A major issue for the Liberty and Grand Cherokee is the failed temperature blend re-circulation doors and actuator behind the center dash console. You’ll get more answers for this problem by looking at Q & A for Grand Cherokees.
What to do if your liberty has a bad temp sensor?
Your engine temperature sensor is responsible for relaying your engine temp to the ECU. Once the temp gets so hot, the ECU commands the radiator fan to come on. If your Liberty has a bad engine temp sensor the radiator fan won’t know to come on, because the ECU won’t know how hot the engine is. You’ll need to locate and test the engine temp sensor.

Why is the thermostat on my Jeep Liberty not working?
The job of your Liberty’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. Sometimes when a thermostat goes bad, it stays stuck open. This allows the coolant to continuously enter the engine.
