Default Heater Problems

Hi,

I recently replace my heating system because the old one wasn't working. I can't get it to turn on when I turn it on. I replaced fuses, heater box and all parts. The only things I haven't replaced is the switch on the heater control ***** and wiring. All the wiring seems to be in good shape. Is there anyway to test the wiring before replace it all or any other suggestions?

Here's a link to the wiring diagrams listed in the FAQ section.

WIRING

If you have basic troubleshooting skill and a multimeter you should be able to find your problem. If not... I see three choices.

You learn as you go by asking a boatload of questions, you find a friend with mad skills, or you pay someone to fix it.


I just thought of a fourth possible solution, when it's cold dress warm.

Good luck.

I would use a multimeter or a test light and see if you are getting power to the blower motor under the hood and to the blower resistor on the front of the heater box.
