Make sure you are flushing in the opposite direction from the normal flow. Do this by disconnecting the heater core from the water pump, hook a garden hose on one end and push the crap out the other hose into a bucket.

A conventional radiator/engine flush treatment does nothing because it does not actually back flush the heater core. You can do it yourself quite easily. Disconnect both ends and make sure you BACK FLUSH it with a garden hose. You'll like get a ton of globby crud out of it. Reconnect hoses, refill system and enjoy the heat!

It could also be that the heater coil is bad. Check with the guys at you local Parts store they will help you with it if you just ask. But do it when they are not real busy so they can spend time with you. Posted on 10/25/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Dodge Dakota's Heater Not Working By Guest (Guest Post) Check with your library.

My not be opening all the way or closing partially blocking heat disbursement. According to my source this is a somewhat common Dakota problem.

He said you may have to rev it to get air bubble out. He had to do this to his bravada to get it working again. He also suggests going on to dodgeforum.com and ask people there, they are helpful with all kinds of things. He visits that site daily. Posted on 10/22/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse
