Best Answer

Low coolant, bad coils, perforated radiator hoses, blockage of the vents.. it's a bit difficult to pinpoint without knowing the conditions and circumstances under which it happens. For instance, if you're an OTR/Regional driver with something like Detroit Diesel's Optimum Idle system, and it fails to kick on when the motor cranks over, it may be the result of electronics failure.

Why does heat not work in 1995 Toyota Corolla?

The heater isn't an extra unit, it is simply pulling heat from the engine and blowing it into the cab. If the engine is not hot the heat will seem like it is not working. If the heat is not working after the engine has warmed up, you may have a fan that doesn't work, or a clogged vent.

Why do you smell antifreeze in the cab of your Subaru?

Antifreeze is used to heat the cab of your vehicle. When you turn on your heat in your cab, it opens up a valve that allows the hot antifreeze to flow from the radiator into the heater core. If there is a leak in the rubber tubes that flow into the heater core, or if the heatercore is damaged, you will smell the antifreeze in the cab of the vehicle. You may need new hoses to the heater core and/or a new heater core.
