Need info such as: is the fan motor blowing, cold air from ducts, overheating?

Steve:
Yes the fan motor is blowing just fine, but just cold air. The car is not over heating at all. Temp gauge is right where is is supposed to be, and car is not running hot or over heating. I thought maybe from lack of use the thermostat was stuck or shot? Could this be the issue?
Thanks very much
Tyler

Tyler, what you can try is to let the engine get to normal operating temp. Carefully grab the heater hoses, one at a time. If they are both hot, you may have a problem in the ducting of the heater module. If one is hot and the other is cold, you have a restricted heater core. Perform this test first and post back with the results.

Steve
