Heater Core in Ford Crown Victoria vehicles mainly serves as a device which can warm up the vehicle cabin by using the excess heat of the engine. Looking like a miniature radiator, it is the core through which a water and antifreeze solution circulates and the hot coolant of the engine passes through to warm the car's interior. Depending on the type and complexity of the heater core some may have a valve or doors to control temperature and other complex systems utilize electromechanical actuators. In airconditioned vehicles, the heater core also help in de humidity since it reheat cool air going to the evaporator. Some of the issues, which are usual are clogging, leaking and corrosion, which when addressed may mean that the dashboard has to be almost dismantled. There are other methods of heating air-cooled engines; however, they are risky to implement.
