What is the Heater Control Valve all about?

The heater control valve is one of the many components that are responsible for warming the interior compartment. This valve controls the flow of coolant from the engine to the heater core. Most heater control valves are operated in three basic ways. A manual cable, a thermostat type system, or even engine vacuum can control them.

Keep in mind:

The heater control valve cannot be repaired, only replaced.
When the valve is replaced, a mechanic should inspect the other heater hoses, so that they can be replaced if need be.
If the heater control valve is contaminated or corroded, the coolant in the system should be flushed when the new valve is installed.

How it's done:

Pressure check the cooling system.
Test operation of the valve.
Replace the control valve if bad/leaking.
Fill with coolant.
Test operation of the heater.

Our recommendation:

Since the air and heating system is a closed system, a mechanic won’t be checking your heater control valve during routine inspections and services. Instead, keep an eye on your air and heating system, and schedule an inspection if you notice that anything is malfunctioning. If your heater either doesn’t work or won’t adjust, then you possibly have a malfunctioning heater control valve, and you should schedule an inspection.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Heater Control Valve?

Coolant is leaking.
Heater does not work.

How important is this service?

If the heater control valve is leaking then you will end up with a loss of coolant, which will eventually cause the car to overheat. A properly working heater control valve ensures the proper functioning of the heating and AC system.

I was truly amazed with my experience with Your Mechanic. It far exceeded my expectations in every aspect. If you had 100 mechanics like Paul Ethridge, you would be an untouchable option for the general public searching for reliable, honest, friendly & knowledgeable mechanics to provide realistically priced accurate car repairs. I can assure you that I intend to continue to use Paul as My Mechanic in the likely event that I will need one in the future. What a refreshing experience with a situation that has such potential to not go well. Thank you Paul and thank you Your Mechanic for the service you provide. I am a fan and appreciate the quality your organization supports. Great job all the way around.

Mohammed was able to make appointment a little sooner than scheduled which helped my scheduling of chores I need to accomplish. He dispatched the work with ease and cleaned things and lubed parts as necessary. Road test was successful with no issue at all. Stopping power was great.

All the dash lights come on and air stops working but the car still runs.

I have a 2009 Nissan Sentra. It has not been starting when in the morning when it is cold. But it will start after the sun warm it up a bit. I’m in central North Carolina where we have mild winters. I had the alternator tested and battery tested. The battery is brand new - holds 12.1-12.4 volts at rest, 10.0 volts when being started and reads around 14.1 volts during operation. What could be causing this?
