Heater Core - Description

DESCRIPTION

NOTE: LHD model shown. RHD model similar.





The heater core (1) is mounted into the left side of the HVAC air distribution housing, which is located behind the instrument panel. The heater core is a heat exchanger made of rows of aluminum tubes and fins. The heater core is positioned within the air distribution housing so that only the selected amount of air entering the housing passes through the heater core, before being distributed through the heater-A/C system ducts and outlets. One end of the heater core is fitted with a tank (2) that includes the fittings for the heater core tubes (3)

The heater core can be serviced without removing the HVAC housing from the vehicle.
