I used back probes that have the alligator clips attached to them. I will pull it apart again and take a look again though.

The car I pulled it from had just gotten there and had all the glass and doors so no exposure to weather. The good news is that the DATC I bought has a 14 day exchange policy so I am going to make the trip back and exchange it for another. Well I hope so at least. Not sure if they even have any...

Used from the local pick-a-part. I see where you are going with that, and I agree it is possible I got another bad DATC, however I dont think they have a high failure rate and the odds of me getting another with the exact same issue is slim.

Update: Well I went through the diag yet again and came up with the same conclusion... bad DATC. Either I am missing something or my new DATC really is bad despite being highly unlikely.

Update: I put in my new DATC tonight and it did not solve my issue. I must have missed something somewhere or my new DATC is bad also, but I think that is unlikely.

It is base/clear. Before you go wet sanding away all that valuable clear give this a try http://www.amazon.com/Eraser-Water-Spot-Remover-16/dp/B004BFW0EO/ref=sr_1_2?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1383447810&sr=1-2 I have had great success with it.

Update: It appears my DATC has failed. Everything but the control to the aux pump works fine. I confirmed this when I came to step I10 by jumping C228b pin 18 (BN/BU) to C228a pin 2 (BK) and it energized the relay and I heard my aux pump run. I will update this again when I get my new DATC to...

The camo is not my cup of tea but I like the idea and craftsmanship looks great,

Thanks! I will give an update once I go through everything.

Well here is where I am at. After finding out my aux pump was not getting voltage because of no ground to the relay to complete the circuit I have jumped the relay to where it energizes when the ignition is on. Now that I have power and ground to my aux pump I determined it was failing...

Aux pump was not working. Checked for voltage at connector and got nothing. Jumped the relay and got the pump to turn on however it sounded really weak. joegr, do you happen to know what kind of ohms is acceptable for the aux pump? After confirming the aux pump is within spec I would like to get...

joegr you have made some great points. It seems like I need to look at my aux pump. I will update later this week when I have time to look at it. Thanks. *edit* If the aux pump had failed wouldn't I still get heat when driving? I am still going to check it out, just going over the situation in...

Sorry in advance for the wall of text. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated. Ok here is another "I have no heat" thread. I bought the car with some issues and here is where I am at. 2001 3.9 -I replaced the Degas Bottle, coolant crossover hose, thermostat and housing with the...
