  • Heater ducting issue?

    So, I noticed this when I replaced my thermostat a few months ago but did not really care at the time. Now that its getting colder, ive been using my heater more often but noticed I dont get heat out of the radio cover vents. The defrost and foot vents blow hot and re-circ works great. When it is switched to the front vents (radio cover) it will blow, but only cold air. At first I thought it might have been the way it was designed, but that just seems silly.

      Only outside air through the vents in question.

        Really? That does seem weird.

            Here we go again. Might be a good idea to sticky this question & move ALL the former like questions to it. I know, thats a lot of work. But that question seems to come up every few months,& no one does a search.:nono:

              What they're all saying is true. My dog loves those vents; uses them for air induction directly into the nose during the summer months.
