1999 GCC spec Land Cruiser. Having trouble with the heat. The problem is that there isn't any.
I've gone through all the normal steps like making sure the carpet isn't covering the vents, testing both front and rear (neither have heat), etc.
Likely related, the engine temp gauge takes ages to rise up and at best reaches a quarter of the way up. My 2002 LX hits mid range on the guage pretty fast. Figured the thermostat had failed open and that's why I had a cold engine and no heat. I replaced the thermostat, radiator cap, and hoses with toyota OEM today. No change. For fun I tested my old t-stat and it opened at 176 F, so that's about right.
What else could cause this? I can't check for codes (no lights showing anyways). The GCC spec doesn't seem to want to talk to me. It has the OBDII port, but neither techstream nor the devices at auto parts stores can communicate with it.
Thanks in advance!
