Why is my car heater not blowing coolant?
Most likely based on what you are saying there is either air in the system or your water pump is not circulating very well, but that would also affect the temp of the vehicle. I have also seen where the fitting on the engine going to the heater hose plug up I would remove the hose then start the engine for a seconds to see if coolant shoots out.
What should coolant temp be when engine is hot?
With a good OBD2 code reader, you can also check the live data and the parameters of the CTS sensor. Check that the temperature value of the CTS is around 80-90c when the engine is hot. A lot of engine coolant temperature sensors have two wires and the sensor is controlled by Ohm.
What to do if your car heater is blowing out cold air?
Run the engine until the fan kicks in. Once your fan has come on, look around the radiator for a bleed port or bleed screw. This is something that can be turned with a screwdriver. Once you turn it anti-clockwise, you should hear a hiss; this is the air being released. 4. Are the Heater or Heater Controls Broken?
Why is my hot water heater not blowing heat?
One way to check is to feel both heater hoses. If one is hot and the other not then no coolant through the core. Thus core plugged. If there was no heat at all and the temp gauge was reading really low, then possibly a thermostat stuck open.
What causes a heater to blow cold air?

What happens to the coolant when the engine is too hot?
The rest of the hot coolant is regulated by the thermostat, which maintains a consistent engine temperature that does not rise above or fall below the engine’s normal operating temperature. If the engine is too hot, the thermostat will open to allow the flow of coolant into the radiator.
