Town & Country 2001: No heat in front
 

Hi,
I am a new owner of a 2001 T&C with automatic temperature control. I am experiencing an issue with the heating system as follows:
- no matter what degree I select, it blows only cold air in the front; the rear does get warm/hot air in the meantime. Issue only exists for the front.

Any help/input would greatly appreciated! Thank you!!!

coolant level low

Hi Chrysler Tech,
Thank you for your quick reply. I filled the coolant level back to the max, but it still doesn't blow hot air. Do you have any other ideas?

Thanks.

did u just look in the over flow or did u look in the radiator itself as well?

RE: Town & Country 2001: No heat in front
 

I assume the overflow (the little plastic container that shows the Min and Max levels) only. How would I check the radiator itself? Thanks again!!

open up the cap thats on the radiator left side push down and twist to the left.

Ok, thanks. Radiator is full as well. Still not working. Could it be an electrical problem, since it sat for 7 months on a lot before I bought it this past weekend...

if u can locate the motors on the driver side under the dash look for the one that will move when u trurn the air temp the others ones would be for air direction.

RE: Town & Country 2001: No heat in front
 

motor for temp is working. when chaning temperatures the "lower" motor is engaging. (still only cold air blowing.)

then u have a clogged heater core then feel the lines that go into the fire wal if one is colder then the other it is clogged up.

i will check after work. how would i go about declogging it?

RE: Town & Country 2001: No heat in front
 

depends on how bad it is radiator flush might do it air pressure in the lines might then again it might be so bad nothing short of changing out the core will fix it.

RE: Town & Country 2001: No heat in front

By-Passing rear heater core
 

I have a 2000 Town & Country that I use on a limited bases. I am tired of the lines leaking going to the rear heater. I have connected the heater hose coming out of the water pump to the front heater bottom line but am puzzled where to connect the outlet back to the engine. I would like to completely by pass the rear heater??
