we have a small problem with the escos
in the car there comes no hot air anymore from the ventilation holes when you turn the ventilation on, always cold and normal air,
what can be the problem?
and how to solve it?

the car has no airco!

Cheers tom,

 

has the coolant been taken off the car ?

 

Do you get warm air out if you change it from the screen, to feet etc. Might be the flaps that direct the air are stuck. I had this on my Mondeo.

 

nop, no leak in the coolant system
and the 2 pips that going to the inside heating radiator are also hot
I always get cold air, on my feet and on the window

how can I best find the cable that regulate the flaps?

 

you sure the pipes that go in and out of the bulk head are piping hot?sounds to me that the heater matrix has gone.
what does the temp gauge do?sit at normal or really low all the time?if low all the time someone may have taken the thermostat out.?

but most likely cause of this is the matrix mate. they arent dear.40quid mark i think,just a shit job to change

 

temp gauge do normal things and goes well as normal
themosat is ok, the front radiator get also hot so don't think its the thermostat

when its the matrix, how do I best change it? somebody has ever done this?

cheers tom,

 

sounds alot like matrix then.but im no mechanic the two pipes will get warm due to thier postition at the back of the engine but the should be piping hot if its working.one is in and one is out you see.

as for fitting.i havent done it myself,but as far as i know its the bottom half (console)out of the way and a fiddly job to manouvre round the pedals.

someone may know a quicker way.but im going by saff experience when my mate did mine

 

thanx mate

i hope someone has ever done this? change the matrix?

need some tips and triks to do the job sow.....
all information welcom

ow it's al left hand drive car

cheers

 

Maybe the adjustable resistor has gone so can not regulate the heating.

or even a broken cable from the matrix and the control knob.

failing that and you do need to change the heater matrix then be prepared to take the whole dash out
