R32 (gtr) Climate Control - No Heater!

[GT-R32]

Hi fellas, the heater in my car isn't working while the climate control/air con works as it should. I would appreciate some direction of where to check first or if there is a common fault.

Cheers

theres a plug/connector under the glovebox on the righthand side that controls the flap ,the pins on the pc board that the plug connects to are known for breaking away from the board(dry joint).

see if it works when u turn it on then give the plug a little wiggle.

Awesome. Thanks so much, I'll give it a go tomorrow.

has the heater ever worked while you've had the car? many people bypass the heater core if it starts leaking - if so you will find the coolant lines at the rear of the motor looped back to each other instead of running into the cabin

It was definitely that! Works as it should now, just had to give it a squeeze together.

Could someone please post a pic of what we're talking about? Same problem here, (that and in diagnostic mode it always thinks it's -23 outside :S), I pulled the glovebox out, but was a little unsure of what to do next!
