I just got the old family wagon back from the last of the big kids in
the family.
The a/c works fine. The heater core is not leaking but there is ZERO
heat.

Is there some type of vacuum hose or door under the hood or dashboard
that I should look for the get the heat on ?

thanks

There has been many post here in the past about coolant problems with
this vintage of taurus. My guess is you looking at heater core, frost
plugs, water pump, and a complete flush.

If operated by cable, the cable may have broke or come loose... check
that and also check the thermostat.. it may need replacing.
