Heater issues in a micra/window issues

[Menthis]

Hello all,
Got two problems with this pile of **** car. Its a 1999 nissan micra. 3 door
Basically both windows have an issue with the mechanism its a manual one. when i wind them down the window doesnt move and the mechanism just goes down. Ive had it open put it back on tried again, had no luck any adivce?

Second issue is that the blowers (technical wording) have very little blowing power and even on full wack its basically nothing, and they also do not blow out hot air even on the highest setting, i can hear the fan spinning and blowing, changing speeds etc. just no air comes out of vents. Also when the blowers use to work. the heat would come out, but out of the middle two vents they were always cold.

Hopefuly you can make sense of my gobble tee goop.
Any advice would be very grateful.
Thanks Sam

Please fully star out all swearing in future. Thank you.

The first one simply sounds like the bottom of the window is not correctly engaged with the window regulator. There is a metal channel that should be attached to the bottom of the window, and within this channel plastic wheels run which are attached to the operating arm.

Okay i have opened this up many of times and re attached the the glass between the plastic bits. Just every time i open the window the window stays and the mechanism goes down.

The fan issue is possibly caused by a blocked up pollen filter, if your car is fitted with one (does it have air conditioning?)

I am unsure? Quite the noob on car business really.

And also does the pollen filter still explain the no heat coming from them either? its just cold air..

for the blower have you had the pollen filter changed? if not change it while you at it you can clean out the leaves and twigs

Okay ill have a look do you know where i would be able to find the pollen filter?
Will it be a whole dash removal?

In post 1 you said nothing comes out?
So is it blowing COLD air ok but no HOT air?

Somethings comes out but its very faint, even on full, and yes cold cold air comes out, never gets hot.

ok,
Weak airflow = check pollen filter if ok then it sounds like something is obstructing the air duct or leaves/debris blocking the heater matrix.

No hot air = blocked heater matrix, dodgy heater matrix inlet valve or thermostat, or low coolant level.

Okay thanks, the weak airflow has been like it for a while, just kinda delt with it really.
And the heating really only just went when i turned the dial to cold, it made an awful sound and sounds like it got stuck on cold, could even just be the dial isnt turning properly. I will have a look on the weekend.
Thanks guys

Ah before i do are all the things that you listed behind the dash board area? or are they going to be under the bonnet?

I would be guessing the matrix tbh has been dead for a while..
