Default Ford Focus 59 1.6 TDCi heater not working

Hi All,

hot air has stopped working, blows cold air out on all four settings and temp gauge looks ok on dash. you can detect a very slight difference when moving the cold air / hot air dial like its trying to do something but no hot air at all,

any help would be much appreciated

cheers

Hi there
how did you get on with your heater problem...what was causing it to blow cold air all the time?

Hi there, just before this problem occured i had taken the radio out to get a serial number. i must have kinked a cable that runs underneath the radio when i put it back.

the cable is connected to the hot/cold air selector switch and slides into a sort of plastic tube (IIRC), because i kinked it it was pushing it self upwards instead of into the tube so in effect not moving whatever it is connected to at the other end. i ended up just using a tie wrap to keep it straight no problems since

hope that helps,
