I can let my car warm up, the engine says warm on dash however there is no heat blowing threw the vents. The control knob is turned all the way up and there is no heat or air. After driving for about 20 mins the heat comes on. What can this be?. Please help

check to make sure both hoses going to heater are hot then try unplugging hvac fuse for 60 seconds with key on it may reset the air mix motor as that may be the problem so no heat.it's fuse 3 and 6 in car this is for manual heat only. This sounds like you have low engine coolant or the temperature blend door actuator stopped working but to but sure this video and guide can help us fix it.
