Does the engine reach normal operating temp? Do the heater hoses get hot? Does the blower motor work? Thermostat could be an issue, as well as heater core? Maybe a directional door under the dash isn't operating like it should.

car heats up, blower fan goes fine, doors operate, I noticed after I had to replace my battery. I was thinking it was a fuse but thats not it.

if you still have no heat, hold your hand on the heatercore hoses.... they go to the firewall... both should be hot... if only one is hot, and the other is cold, then your heater core is clogged... it might beable to be flushed out, if not, it will need to be replaced.... also, im assuming your radiator is full correct?
