No heat! Is there a fuse?

Yesterday I tore open the radio compartment to take out a defective cd
changer.  Today my heater doesnt work. I get fan blower, but no heater.

Is there a fuse that handles the heater, or is there a power source that
runs the heater behind the radio?

I cant help but wonder if something I did behind the dash might have pulled
something loose. Could it be a thermostat? The car never gets heat after
driving awhile, and I was thinking a defective thermostat would eventually
put heat in the car.

Thanks!

George

Make and year of car?  If you didn't have heat before tearing open the radio
compartment, what is different now?  Could be wiring, vacuum hose air door
that is binding.. many things.

The fuse covers the blower motor. If its Automatic Climate Control
possibly you knocked a wire harness loose.

What is the Mystery Car & year ?

Is the system Manual or Automatic AC / Heat?

Do you get air out the right spots when you move the selector switch? If
not pulling the radio out might of pulled off a vacuum hose under the
dash. Sometimes wire harness  nylon ties are wrapped around hoses to
hold the wire up.

Did U have HEAT before removing the radio?

Woops, forgot the important info. Chevy Malibu 1998.  Manual heat. There is
two vacumn tubes , one red, and the other black. One has vacumn, and the
other does not. Pretty sure I had heat before I started yanking out the CD
Changer components located behind the radio.

YIPEE! I got heat. Behind the glove box, to the left is a little gadget that
had the power cord unplugged. Plugged it back in and I got heat!
