At the VAZ-2114 the stove is blowing cold air. What to do?

VAZ-2114 is the second generation of the legendary "Lada of Samara". The machine got a new look, but did not get rid of old problems. In particular, these are regular problems of the salon heater. It often happens that the VAZ-2114 oven blows cold air on the sides and on the windshield. Naturally, this problem should be addressed urgently before the onset of the first cold weather. So, let's look at why on the VAZ-2114 the stove is blowing cold air and how to solve this problem.

Thermostat

This is a kind of valve that causes the coolant to move around in a large or small circle. It serves to quickly warm up the engine. But this part is also connected with the salon heater. While the thermostat does not open on the "big circle", the stove will be cold. This problem is observed not only at idle. At the VAZ-2114, the stove is blowing cold air because of the unheated coolant. Along with this, the motor itself suffers, because it is not in its temperature regime. The most optimal figure is 80-90 degrees. If it is less, then the element opens before the time or stuck at all. In the latter case, it is subject only to replacement. The benefit of the new thermostat on "Samara" is inexpensive - about 300 rubles.

Air in the system

This is the second reason that the VAZ-2114 oven blows cold air. Also, because of this problem, the motor itself can overheat. Where in the system can be air? The reason is an unauthorized "suction", which can occur during repair operations of the system. So, very often the air gets when replacing the same thermostat or the heater's cock. How can I check for it in the system? First you should pay attention to the temperature sensor. But not always it gives an accurate result. The machine can also operate in normal mode, but at the same time there will be air in the radiator of the stove. How to identify it? It is enough to touch the rubber pipes that go to the heat exchanger. At VAZ-2114 they are on the right, on the passenger side. In total in the stove system there are two branch pipes. If air is felt when squeezing them, then it must be removed.

How to clean the system from the cork?

The solution to the problem is quite simple. It is necessary to drive up the hill with the front part of the car. The higher the degree of recovery, the better. Further on the working motor, unscrew the plug from the expansion tank and wait until all the air leaves the system. According to the laws of physics, air is lighter than liquid and tends to go up. So we will create the most favorable conditions for this. Enough three to five minutes of the engine to completely remove the plug from the system. Periodically, it should be podgazovyvat up to 2-3 thousand revolutions, in order to create more pressure for the coolant (the more the crankshaft rotates, the more the pump rotates). It is also recommended to squeeze and unclamp the inflated nipple - so we will speed up the process of oxygen release outside. But be careful - the temperature can reach 90 degrees. For safety reasons, wear gloves.

Flapper

This is another reason why the VAZ-2114 oven blows cold air at the feet and not only. The damper may not fit securely for several reasons. So, the control lever may come off or flake foam. In the latter case, you need to paste a new one. It is desirable for high-quality glue.

On the VAZ-2114 the stove blows cold air on the sides

You can see the picture of the side dams below. Owners of VAZ-2114 cars often face a similar problem: the window and legs are warm air, and on the sides - cold. What is the reason? The reason - in an unreasoned arrangement of the stove body. This problem was observed at the Soviet G8. So, the nozzles of the lateral blowing channels are below the damper itself. And as soon as the latter is slightly opened, the cold air gets into the damper immediately.

The side airbag is located at the driver's feet, on the left side. If the VAZ-2114 oven blows cold air on the sides, you should tighten the cable. This can be done in two ways:

• With the help of pliers, without dismantling the damper. Climbing to the problem place, we squeeze the element a few tens of degrees.
• With the help of round pliers. This is a more effective option. To do this, remove the torso from the throttle lever and twist it a little. For convenience, it is recommended to partially disassemble the console. So you can control the closing density of the flaps in place.

Lever arm

If the VAZ-2114 oven blows cold air, even after tightening the cable, it is worth examining the state of the lever itself, which opens the damper. Despite the thickness of the metal, it can crack. In this case, the damper is in one place. Usually it is slightly ajar. As a result, air from there blows a completely different temperature. The way out is to buy a new lever. But often it is sold in collection with a deflector. After it is replaced, the stove works as expected. Hot air blows from all sides - to the feet, to the front, to the center and to the sides. The most flap is the damper itself. There are few reasons for its deformation (banal use of the stove at the limit of possibilities), but it is not necessary to exclude this problem from the list.

Conclusion

So, we have found out, for what reasons on the VAZ-2114 the stove is blowing cold air. As you can see, the problems can be different. But before buying new parts, you need to accurately determine the essence of the problem. Probably, the blame for everything is an airlock. In the case of a cable, it is not necessary to change it entirely. Above is presented a way how to resume its working capacity by a simple pull-up. But whatever reason arose, in any case, it can be solved with your own hands with minimal expenditure.
