I have a Ford Fiesta 1.3 Encore 1997. The heater does not give out any heat, the tempreture guage is working and the blower works but no heat comes through. Any ideas

The first thing to check is the coolant level.
Low coolant = no heat.
Next would be the thermostat is stuck open.
The heater core could also be clogged. Ever use any radiator sealer?

Good luck and let us know. :)

Suggested Repair

Check the coolant level first, because low coolant can cause no heat. If the level is fine, check whether the thermostat is stuck open. Also check the heater core for clogging, especially if radiator sealer was used.

Conversation Summary

Owner of a 1997 Ford Fiesta 1.3 Encore reports no heat from the heater even though the temperature gauge and blower work. Expert advice is to check the coolant level, a thermostat stuck open, and a possibly clogged heater core, including whether radiator sealer was used.
