My heater blow out cold air

When I turn my heat on in my truck it blow out cold air it is a 2011 dodge nitro 4.0 liter engine

  • Anonymous Dec 11, 2016

    It could be caused by several failures.

    1. Make sure coolant level is correct.
    2. Thermostat stuck open? Let engine idle until temp gauge at normal range. Check if top radiator hose is hot. If not, likely the thermostat.
    3. Engine overheating? Water pump.
    4. Radiator or coolant reservoir pressure cap is loose or bad.
    5. Heater blend door stuck or broke.
    6. Heater core is blocked and needs back-flushed. Check heater inlet and outlet hoses. Should be near equal temp.

2008 Dodge Nitro blows cold air constantly but coolant fine.

If both the coolant hoses are hot then the coolant is passing through the heater core. You probably have an actuator or blend door that is not working. It may be restricted by commanding it to work. A scanner could help you find out the problem.
