Hello, Took my radio out of my trooper to hook it up to an IPOD adaptor. When I put it back in my heater stopped working. Not sure if I disconnected something accidentally. The fan still blows, but it's cold air. Thanks
Re: Hello, Took my radio out of my trooper to hook it up...
You probably got the arm off the temp control dial so the flap over the heater wont open . Just trace your steps back and you will see it in the top of where the radio sits.

Want to better clarify heater blower. If you mean the selector knobs inside the cab on the dash do not function to turn on the heat, then you can pull off the front cover there where your radio sits. Grab from the bottom and lift up and out. There are wiring harness connector for the heat dials there, make sure they are all connected.
If you are referring to the actual blower fan that is in the engine department my guess would be they disconnected the power somewhere while hooking it up, look again for a wire disconnected at the harness, or better yet take your vehicle back to whomever installed the remote start and tell them to fix it.
Sounds like you need a new mechanic. The idle speed is going up because extra air is entering the intake much like opening the throttle plate. You might be able to plug all of the line fittings to get the idle speed back down, but the hoses would still need to be connected correctly.
check the fuses for the fan. could be a blown fan motor, bad switch...or maybe water heater core bad, hot water valve bad, disconnected heater lines in the engine compartment... all possiblitlies
Check the connections on all the pins, If it is a plug and play adaptor, check your fuses, but most likely the speaker connections are slightly loose, which is causing the lack of sound. I find when removing stereos if the wires are shorter they disconnect, but stay in the housing.
The aux is for the cd player, there is no wire in the back for an aux. But you can buy an adapter that splices into the back which allows you to use the stereo to control your ipod. It only works because you could have a 6 cd changer stock, so it uses those controls.
make sure to disconnect the negative side of the battery first and wait at least 2 minutes before messing with any air bag components. and yes you will need to get the security code reprogramed for the radio
HELLO, ON THE IPOD BOX ARE SEVERAL NUMBER CODES. THEY HAVE TO BE SET TO THE RIGHT NUMBERS ON OR OFF BEFORE THE FACTORY RADIO WILL READ THE BOX. ONCE THE CORRECT NUMBERS ARE SET FOR YOUR VEHICLE THE AUX BUTTON WILL WORK JUST FINE. IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE BOOK WITH THE CODES IN IT. JUST COUNT THE WIRES ON THE ADAPTOR AND THE LOCATION OF THE PINS THEY CONNECT TO. THEN PUSH ONLY THOSE PINS UP IN THE ON POSTION. GOOD LUCK!
