Heater Core Replacement Instructions
When your engine produces hot coolant, it flows through and heats up the core. The core then heats the air for your vehicle. When this part needs replacement, information and instructions on doing so can be beneficial to vehicle owners.
Remove
The top part of the dash and its lower panel have to be removed to access the heater core. The plastic box over the heater core will need to be removed as well.
Replace
A screwed on clamp made of steel holds the heater core in place. After removing the screws and the clamp, gently pull the heater core out, as it will contain some water. Covering your vehicles carpet with some type of sheeting is recommended.
Time Frame
The location of a heater core varies by vehicle type. The heater core has a location thats difficult to access on some vehicles. The time it takes to replace a heater can go well above six hours.
