No heat in 99 Grand Prix GT
No heat in 99 Grand Prix GT
Had heat only coming from drivers side, replaced blend air actuator on pass side and had heat on both sides. Worked for about 1 month then yesterday my heat just stopped working. Only cold air blows out. Auto A/C , heat control seems to be working fine. Water Temp guage is not holding temp., it fluctuates, as soon as engine temp is reached it drops to below 160 then starts to climb back up. It's COLD and snowing, that's not a good combination when you have no heat or defrost.

Check the antifreeze level.
Does not sound like a control problem. but could try disconnect the battery for a few minutes toi reset the control head.
160 degrees should still give some heat though. Unless has an air pocket. Can't transfer heat from heater core if air in core.

Sounds to me like a simple faulty thermostat. Maybe it is opening too soon and opening all the way at once allowing the engine to cool down too quickly. You should still get heat with 160° coolant temperature though. If you never really get heat even though the coolant temperature is up to normal, and the coolant level is fine, and you are sure the blend doors in the dash all working fine, then you may have a plugged heater core. You can remove the hoses from under the hood and flush them out with a garden hose on full blast. Have both hoses disconnected from the engine but still connected to the heater core. Then run the hose full blast in one hose and let it run out the other then do it to the other does. You can also buy some flushing chemicals at your local parts store.
