Why Winston-Salem drivers book mobile heater & blend door repair

Winston-Salem is the far east end of our hour on I-40. We take jobs on the west and south sides of the city and quote drive time up front. We've done plenty of heater & blend door repair jobs in this part of Forsyth County, and the process is the same everywhere: confirm the problem, quote it, fix it, and clean up.

What's included

A clicking noise behind the dash and air stuck on one temperature is a blend door actuator, one of the most common failures on GM, Ford, and Chrysler vehicles. No heat with a hot engine is usually a clogged heater core, a stuck valve, or air in the system. We diagnose which and fix it.

  1. Scan the HVAC module for actuator codes
  2. Test heater hose temperatures to diagnose core flow
  3. Replace the blend, mode, or recirculation actuator
  4. Flush the heater core if clogged, replace hoses or valve as needed
  5. Recalibrate the HVAC system

Signs it's time

  • Clicking or knocking from behind the dash
  • Air won't switch between hot and cold
  • Air only from defrost or floor vents
  • No heat even when the engine is warm
  • Sweet smell inside the cabin (heater core leak)
