So I replaced my heater core in my TJ about 6-9 months ago. It lasted all of a week before the "new" heater core blew up. I didn't go back and replace it immediately because I have to remove the cage from the jeep in order to get the dash off and I didn't want to deal with it. Well....I finally bit the bullet and did the job today. Managed to get the whole thing done in 4-5 hours, which is not too bad. While I had it apart, I took the opportunity to clean up some wiring under the dash. All together now and hope this time, it lasts more than a week. Assuming it does, I'll charge the A/C and call it good.
Here is the heater core that I pulled out of the box. I'm assuming that it was fractured before I installed it. Anyone think that it might be something else? Maybe something with my system?
