heater not working

[chris285]

just noticed on my 1.4 99 plate my heater aint working, engine had been running for about 10mins and turned heater up all the way but nothing

is there anything i can do or check short of taking to a garage?

Does it not work on any of the settings ie 1,2,3,4? If it only works on level 4 then you need a new heater matrix. If it doesn't work at all, check the fuse first.

i think i did try on level 4 fan but will check again on the way home this evening, hope its something simple like the fuse

is it completely kaput or just chuckin out cold air? mine did this,chuckin out cold air and yes i know makes me sound like typical girl although i check regularly,i didn't have any water in me bottle not my fault had a leak,honest.
not good with winter fast approachin'!!

 

[chris285]

oh its working, just throwing out cold air

 

[chris285]

def not working on level 4 with full heat after testing on the way home, need to take a look at the fuse i think

 

[chris285]

not the fuse after checking this evening

i seem to have developed a possible leak somewhere up near the radiator so may be related to that
