Hey Guys anyone have this problem before. I did a coolant system flush about 3 months ago and bleed the air out and the whole nine, but ever since when I have the heat on or any hot air blowing through the vents for that matter, hot air will only come out of the side vents and only cold air will blow from the central vents in the dash. Anyone?... :werd:

If it doesn't make a difference if the cool vent lever between the center vents is up or down (down for heat) then maybe the cable has slipped and needs adj. Don't really know, haven't had a problem with mine ...... yet.

if i'm correct, there should be like the one switch right on the middle of the vent, part of thje climate control. if push upward it will pull fresh air from the engine bay and downward the heater air. it's like optional for people they have fresh air coming in the middle vent and heater on the side vents. only on LXi or SEi models.

Um, LX and above has that. DX should be the only model without it, however, I am unsure of European models etc.

a cable probably might have slipped off but it would be kind of hard to slip off because there are little holders that keep the cable inside but it does just slip off of the little stud kind of thing it goes onto.

If your not getting any heat. Grab holdt of the 2 heater hoses going to heatercore and see if there hot. after a ride. If they are then most likely things were dropped into defroster ductwork finding there way to the flaps and jamming them such as lighters,pens/pencils,cigars/smokes,who knows what else.
