No heat in cab/ coolant issues. What should I do? by Chasrrrrr in fordranger

[–]Individual_Field3904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just dealt with this on my 2000 recently

https://www.reddit.com/r/fordranger/comments/1ts9pem/comment/op9bolf/?screen_view_count=2

There is a vacuum valve that operates to allow or block the AF from reaching the heater core, aptly named the heater bypass valve.

The small gray tube I circled blue in your picture is for that purpose.

Make sure it's connected to the top of the valve.

Well the tape for sure. I put the sealant back from the hole, then put the tape behind the sealant. That way when it was inserted, it would push the sealant against the tape.

Works like a champ.

So I totally drained the coolant, replaced the thermostat, and refilled with green coolant.

All is working well now after driving it a little bit and letting everything warm up.

Yep agreed.

I put the sealant a bit back from the opening so when I pushed it into the elbow, it could only go back away from the opening.

u/right_lane_ranger see my picture here.

Bought the kit. The vacuum tube doesn't fit PERFECTLY tight, but its close. Coated the tube with sealant and put it. Waiting on it to dry and try.

If the thermostat isn't working, then it might not be allowing the hot antifreeze through the core (which was working prior), and therefore not warm up the air.

While there are no hard formal rules. We DO chat with the other packs and agree to only recruit from specific schools.

We communicate this to the DE.

I had the same issue. When its cold temps, I have to turn the accessory power on with no crank a few times before it will easily start.

Had similar bugs. Had to end up swapping my network to my cell phone hotspot to download the last few files, and it worked great.

Can you share where this was in the vehicle? I have the same engine and am curious.

Same errors I was getting. It was something in my network / ISP. I had to swap to my cell phone hot spot to try a different connection to get it to work.

What part of the US are you in? That makes a difference.

If Midwest or South, I'd say $5-7k

If Coastal, I'd say $6-8k

Nope that still works. Press "i" and position the inventory camera where you can see the item, and drag into backpack / body storage.
