The car has no heat! I replaced the thermostat and filled it with antifreeze and still have no heat. It does use a little antifreeze but doesn't leak and is not in oil and there is no white smoke coming out exhaust. I don't know why I have no heat. Do you think it's the blend door? Does it reset when i pull the fuse and put it back in?

Yes, you can reset the HVAC system by pulling the fuse, this guide can help you. Pull fuse #14 in the right rear fuse panel for 5 minutes and then reinstall.

If this doesn't work, then I would replace the temperature blend door actuator but first with the engine warm grasp both heater hoses to see if they are warm as well. Please go over this guide to help:
