heat while driving

[p_a_lazar]

Wayne,

The S60 doesn't have the gate valves the v92s have.

Just turn the heat on and it should work.

the Thermostat housing. They control the coolant flow to the chassis heaters,
perhaps four heaters depending on year and length.

a blowout in the heat exchanger or if you are working on the heater.

water flow. There are 4 or more fuses that need to be good and a dash switch.Â
Then it helps if the booster pump works. then once it all works, it won't shut
off and cooks you in the summer time. Oh did I mention you might have a
winter/summer switch that may be wired wrong and open the wrong valve and run
the wrong pump.
