The stove ("Chevrolet Aveo") does not work: causes and remedies
Heat in the cabin of any car is a pledge not only of comfortable driving, but also of road safety. After all, the temperature in the cabin affects the driver's well-being. Therefore, at the first sign of the fact that inside of the stove does not become warmer, you should start troubleshooting without delay. When winter comes, something to do and look for reasons in a cold car will be reluctant. Completely the same should be done in the summer, because someone is happy to ride in the heat with a full-power stove? The car "Chevrolet Aveo" is very popular among Russian motorists. A good combination of price and quality, as well as the prevalence of spare parts and the relative ease of maintenance make this model quite famous.
Main reasons
So, we do not have the Chevrolet Aveo stove. The reasons can be the following:
- malfunction of the thermostat;
- breakdowns associated with the radiator of the heater;
- incorrect operation of air flow distribution mechanisms;
- malfunction of the heater control unit.
It should be noted that the problems with the heating system in modern cars are almost identical, and the algorithm of actions is the same.
Preparation for work
All work on troubleshooting the operation of the stove should be carried out only on condition that the engine and its auxiliary units related to the cooling system are in good order. To do this, check the level of antifreeze in the expansion tank. It must be at least minimum, the engine itself should be easily started and warmed up to operating temperature. Often on the last point there are difficulties.
Malfunction of the thermostat
This device regulating the thermal regime of the engine and allowing it to keep its temperature in a narrow range. The stove, like the engine, also works effectively only with a hot engine.
Air congestion
Often, when the cooling system is operating, because of its leakage, air gets into it, which has the worst thermal conductivity. Then in "Chevrolet Aveo" the stove does not work or starts to work worse. Often this happens due to the fact that the antifreeze was poured into an empty tank, and the air got into the hoses, not being forced out. The air jam is removed quite simply. It is enough to drive the front wheels to any elevation and turn off the expansion tank cap.
Problems with the heater radiator
Often the reason why the Chevrolet Aveo does not work is the clogging of the heat exchanger of the heater. It is clogged with dirt, deposits from the cylinder block of the engine, rust and does not warm up properly. Cleaning here is almost useless. Since this requires removing the radiator, it will be more reasonable to replace it.
Malfunctions of the electric motor of the fan
Another common reason why the "Chevrolet Aveo" does not work the stove, are purely electrical malfunctions. Initially, the cold air is pumped by the fan to the radiator of the stove, which then exits into the interior.
Faults of the resistor block
The fan motor operates at several speeds.
Malfunction of the control unit
The control unit can also malfunction or improperly adjust the temperature in the passenger compartment. Its malfunction is one of the reasons why the stove does not work (Chevrolet Aveo is no exception). Faulty controls on the panel may also malfunction. The control unit itself rarely repairs and is subject to replacement. Another reason for the improper operation of the stove is the failure of the air temperature sensor in the passenger compartment or its closure. In this case, the stove will always "fry" at full or blowing cold air. After all, feedback is through this sensor.
Conclusion
Thus, finding out the reasons why the "Chevrolet Aveo" stove does not work is not such a difficult job. Knowing the device and the principle of the system, as well as representing the sequence of actions, you can confidently deal with this problem yourself.
