When I'm running my heater it only come out warm through the defrost and floor vents. When I switch it to panel it blows out cool air. Is there a fix for this or is that normal?

Does the same thing for me, that's why I always keep it on defrost to get heat...The left lane? Are you crazy!!! I never drive in the left lane...It's full of freaks driving the wrong way and charging right at you!!!

Totally normal , you will never get any heat from your dash vent .
Festiva's will only blow warm air from defrost , and floor .
That is how they were designed .------------------------------------------------

Really? I've had heat come out of my front vents before my heater core went. Now it just does as he describes. Only heat from defrost...anything else and it's just cold air.Originally posted by packrat427 View Post
Does it smell like Maple Syrup when you turn your heat on?Comment

I have always stuffed two rectangles of foam into the vents in the winter. Just remove the two screws below the cover plate, pull, stuff, don't forget you did it come summer. Your A/C really suffers otherwise!
