My heating system doesn’t seem to be working correctly. The air conditioner part works great but my heater is not functioning at all. It seems to be just blowing out air not hot or cold and when switched from auto to fan it blows out cold. Repairs are expensive so i’m looking for do it yourself tips to get this fixed. Thank you.
Thermostat is on heat and auto……not sure but we live an apartment and i know its central heat and air….don’t know much about it

3/31/09 buying a used certified 2006 Honda Odyssey EX-L 28,800 miles for ,900. Mint Condition. Was put in service (new) back in 3/26/06. So the 3yr/36000mile original warranty was over. They suggest I finance (5.79%@60m) the car and the extended warranty using a new fangled bi-monthly payment system. car=,900 + tax=33 + After Market Accessory (aka 5 yr warranty) listed as 00 (that’s right 00.) As it was explained to me by Finance manager , if I financed JUST THE CAR and chose to be happy with my 1yr/12,000 used car bumper to bumper certified warranty I would pay ,500 for the car over the life of loan. But if I roll the 00 warranty into the bi monthly payment method I would pay about ,100 for the car AND a 5 yr warranty together…only 0 more over the life of the loan. (i.e the 5 yr warranty essentially cost me only 0) This is because of the same concept when paying a mortgage bi-weekly to shorten the life of the loan) plus Honda invests the 1st payment of the month and gets interest on it which they in turn use the interest to pay down the financed 00 warranty. It all sounds so crazy. I know I could get 3yr BtoB no gimmics warranty for about 00 to 00, but the bimonthly way I get 5 years BtoB for only 0 more. FinMngr must make at least 00 in there pocket for front loading the warranty. I need to know …Is this creative financing by HONDA legit? Or am I being hosed?
