I now have heat. I check the overflow radiator Reservoir it was correct. I put almost a half a gallon of antifreeze in the radiator which now it produces heat. It Looks like it was just low on Anti-freeze. Do you think I need a new radiator cap?

No leaks. New topic. 98 Nissan Pathfinder. Electrical, the door Indicator light on the dash is very damning flashing, I have checked all of the door switch, The interior light at the baseboard stays on, So I pulled the fuse. Would a bad interior light caused this problem?
