Heat control is by air flow control doors in the a/c and heater box. There is no water valve.
where is the heater control valve for a 1997 ford expedition
The heater control valve in a Mustang is located within the engine. It is right in the heater's core and where the coolant is located.
It does not have a heater control valve.It does not have a heater control valve.
no heat front defrost dsah.
The idle control valve on a1999 Ford Expedition is on the upper part of the engine by the throttle body and fuel injection.
The heater valve is in line in the heater hose from the top back of the 350 engine about half way to where it enters the firewall to connect to the heater core. The valve has a steel wire control cable connected to the top of the valve control lever. It has two hose connections, one in from the engine and one out to the firewall core entry point. Trace your heater hoses and look for the metal valve with the spiral covered control wire.
Where is the the heater control valve??
where is the heater control valve
A heater control valve is simply a water valve which allows more or less water to circulate through the heater core, depending on how much the valve is opened. When the engine warms up it heats coolant (mostly water) in the water jacket of the engine. To keep the engine from overheating, the water pump circulates water through the radiator once the engine temperature reaches the set-point of the thermostat. When it's cold outside the engine STILL reaches a temperature that allows you to make use of the engine heat when you open the water valve of the heater. Heater control valves take many forms but basically they all do the same thing; they open to allow heated engine coolant to circulate through the heater core or they close to stop the coolant from flowing. Heater control valves can be manual (cable controlled or even lever controlled), vacuum (which allows the engine vacuum to control the position of the heater control valve based on where you set the control knob) or electrical which allows for greater flexibility and even allows the auto manufacturer to connect the heater controls to a computer or other electronic control device.
There is no heater control valve fitted on a Ford Escort. The heater matrix is directly connected to the engine's cooling system. To reach the heater matrix, you should remove all the facia unfortunately... :(
The heater control valve is used to shut off hot coolant from entering the core when the heater is in the off position. A heater control valve can be actuated by either a vacuum line or a cable from the vacuum heater control valve to the heater core. This hose should be warm; if not the heater control valve is stuck and needs to be replaced
The heater control valve is mounted on the engine side of the heater and evaporator box which is located on the passenger side of the engine compartment. It will have at least three hoses connected to it and one vacuum line. It kind of hides underneath the a/c accumulator.
