ive been looking around on the internet and i dont know if there is a heater core that does both

or if they all just do both cuz i dont want to buy a heater core that only does heat

but if you dont need a heater core for A/C then just kill me know

 

the heater core would be for the heat only.....hot coolant flow through it and when the blower blows airthrough it, you get heat......

 

so how come when i bypassed the heater core i no longer have an A/C????

 

how did you bypass the heater core?????

 

Must have been a coincidence, the heater core is the same thing as a radiator, but smaller under your dash that as the hot coolant comes in, it heats the copper /aluminum coils and then the blower fan blows air over it, giving you heat. The a/c is a totally different unit, It uses its own coils and condenses the air... Try recharging your a/c and it should work.

 

i bypassed it by takint off the two tubes from the firewall or watever you wanna call it and hooked them together

how much to get it recharged??

 

since i boght this car and really no nothing about it is it possible for the previous owner to have taken out the A/c or is that impossible??

 

Well... Is the AC compresser still there? Is all the lines attached to it? Is there a thing that looks like the radiatorplaced in front of it? The AC lines should be running into it. If so then I would bet that the AC system is still there.

It is very possible to completly remove all of the AC system. Matter of fact some people do, I prefer to have some cold air myself. As for diagnosing the AC system, someone else will have to explain that. I don't have enough knowladge in the matter really. I can mess it up good and proper for you though lol.

As for the heater core. All you did was as you said bypassed it. Nothing to do with the AC when connecting the two heater core lines together.

But... Why did you have to bypass it? Was the Core leaking or maybe some constant hot air blowing?

 

the heater core broke and i was leaking fluid all over my floor

Hmm ill have to look up the ac and see what it looks like then go under the hood and find it
