Will that make my mountaineer blow hot air ?Jeff B.Feb 06, 2022
Best Answer:Hi Jeff, I'm glad to assist you. No, the heater control valve is typically mounted near the firewall and acts as the valve that allows coolant to flow from the engine to the heater core, which is located inside of the vehicle. We have a vehicle-specific service repair manual for your car with part number 36024, by Haynes publication. This would help you in diagnosing the problem with your car. The possible parts that are affected are the blower motor assembly or the blower motor resistor. Grab our sale price offer and click the link below to order these items today. I hope this helps.
