No heat-help-
Recently purchased 2003 X-Type with front end damage.Radiators and thermostat was replaced due to damage. Just recently moved form Sunny Florida to Friged Colorado to find out my heater does not work(not good). Toped off collant and no luck still blowing ice cold. Trying to trace radiator hoses back to fire wall to heater core not sure if this car is even equiped for heat. Help

DityFlo - Need some more info. Does the interior compartment fan work? When you push the selectors (feet-mid-windsheild) do you hear the flaps move or any noise?
Turn everything off in the car. Disconnect the battery for 5 minutes allowing for everything to reset. Then reconnect the battery. Put the key and turn it, but don't start the car. Pull on all the window switches, FIRST. The check you heater.

Heating Problem- Help
Yes the fan blows cold air and all the "(feet-mid-windsheild)" work. I have also tried disconnecting the battery and rest trick to no avail.
I am thinking that the previous owner might have bypassed the heater core. what makes me think this is that I see no hoses going into the firewall from the engine compartment. I have changed out a heater core before in a previous vehicle.PITA.
If some one could point out where I might trace back to determine this or some type of heating system schematic for this vehicle it would be great.
And Thanks Again

Here's the full diagrams for the heater and blower. One other thing I would check is the fuses. Heres a good link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...ram-faq-10712/
If All that fails and you do have all the equipment in tact it could be a short in the actuator. The best thing to do at that point is to have it scanned.
