Went through entire electrical, replace blend door actuator and it works. Replaced thermostat and burped coolant. Car gets to temperature, reservoir full, but no pressure. Replaced cap. No pressure. Top heater core hose hot, bottom hose cold. The small hose from the bleed valve housing in constantly pumping with reservoir cap on or not. So that indicates water pump is turning. But still no pressure in either upper or lower radiator hose. Stumped. Thank you

Something is clogged. I would bet on the heater core being stopped up with gunk. Take the heater core hoses off where they connect to the engine. Hook your water hose up to one of them. You may have to get creative there. Point the other hose away from anything electrical. Turn the water hose on with low pressure. If there is a clog in there, it will come out eventually. Then turn the water pressure up some and let it run a couple of minutes. Then put the hoses back on, bleed the cooling system, and see if you get heat now. Let us know.

Heater Not Working
Step 1 - A heater cannot operate unless the engine is full of coolant/antifreeze. If coolant level is low check the system for leaks.
