I dont know what to say I went from using my heat in my car in one minute fine and now absolutely nothing happening when I turn the dial to 1,2,3,4,5 in no matter what temp. Any comment? Oh and there was no warning signs that there was a problem previously I mean there is no air flow now from vents cold or hot.

Hi there,

Your heater tap or controller may have failed, with the car hot and the heater on, check the temp of both heater hoses going into the cabin, if both are not hot to touch, there will be a fault with the tap or the controller, check this first.
