thanks

also i was wondering my heater doesn't get much warmer when i switch it to heat maybe 1c warmer what would be my most likely problem with this maybe my thermo stat opening early or something my heat stays in the blue line pretty the whole time in less it's summer and goes level with the end of the blue line

trimatic is the auto in the VH SLEs.

The heater, perhaps the air con needs a rebuild? Thats what they have.

That is the problem. The heater works off the air con.

The top radiator hose not hard after a drive is normal. If it was hard, that means the thermostat is stuffed.

Default aircon

ok so if i put the belt on it should work also does it need to be connected to the power because i think the wires on the aircon because its not connected and theres only one wire coming off the aircon and it's a thin black wire we a little round connector on the end should there be more
