STILL... getting to know my RRC.......

[LANDY96]

Ok, changed my water pump this weekend.... Not too bad of a job. Start to finish, including radiator flush... TWICE. It took me 4hrs. Well while doing this I of course wanted to inlude my heater core with the flush! I put the heat on, and no hot air came out of the middle vents. I then fooled around with the switches, and only got hot air to come out of the footwell, or the defrost mode.... top of dash. Is this normal??? In the winter I want hot air to come out where the A/C comes out. Can do that? Boy this truck is sure different than my Disco was..... But I still love it!!!

lol....rrc have there own personalty!!! i think it took me awhile to get everything down. my dads never worked that great when and before i got my rrc and i had no lights on an the control area. do u have a owners manual? if not i will check tonight because i forgot what order u have to have it. i think on the far left u want it up all the way. and on the rights side u can keep it up or down. i have to look again. it should be the same as the AC. were all 3 controls are in red that is were u have the best defrost. rrc never had the best heat systems and i donot think my heat came out that good from the center. and when it is cold i would always have the defrost on and that heats up the rover good for MN winters -10 or so.

If you look at my heater core replacement project. You'll see the center vents are A/C only. I was surprised by that fact. I thought heat should be routed there but apparently not.

Okay scratch that.
I looked at it again and warm air should come out there. I don't think my site on all this will answer your question. I guess I either never managed it or didn't get my levers in the correct position.

i never got hot air 2 come out of my front vents...it all came out the defrost vents...but that air get so damn hot it doesnt matter where its blowing out bc it will still heat up the inside

i remember reading (i do not think this is the promblem) that the tubes that go to each vents comes loss and should b duck taped around the connections to get a better flow. i do not think my heat comes out of the center vents, now i keep thinking about this. does any one know if air comes out of the 2 holes below the center back ash tray (on the floor)? they look like air should come out and when i have teh floor air on nothing comes out and the front floor heaters r so small. i get heat out of the floor heaters, more on one side (pass side). i have a 93 so i do not know what years have the tubes in the back.

Heat only comes out the floor or the defrost. AC only from the middle. I think since they use different blowers that is why you can't use the middle for heat. Not sure what comes out from the center console.
