Its the engine block , it will hold the heat for several hours, in fact if you get back to the car in 15 or 20 minutes it could be higher the temp fo the engine increases after the circulation of the water stops. Its 15 degrees here right now briing it here and it will cool off pretty fast

Rear Heating Problems, 2014 Transit Connect LWB Titanium
G B L replied to mrgone's topic in Climate Control
In addition to the last post. Make sure the Flow control on the front is pointing to the feet . This will maximize the avalible heat -
I did a test run with the car this morning . The starting temp outside was 10 degrees F. Set the front heater on fan speed 3 and temp control high, and the air flow valve pointing to the feet . The rear fan was on 2 and the temp control on high after a ten minute run the heat coming out of the B pillar vent was good I also found that the vent hook up on the passinger side under the seat might not be good . when it is on the duct correctly then there is good heat for the passingers feet. The Rear heater gets most of the warm air from the front heater supplied through the duct. Hope this helps some one.

windguy the Rear Barn doors have the same shape panels as the masonite van panels except they are the same material as the wiper motor covers that are on yours

2014 Transmission fluid level check/refill.
G B L replied to Johnyguy's topic in 2014 Ford Transit Connect
The Directions are accurate the fill is not as easy to get to as the picture shows . The air filter top and hose has to be moved to get to the fill but it is possible A very crummy way to save $10.00 Dollars -
Remember the heater core gets water from the engine coolant at engine temp. That temp could be over 200 degrees . So with the temp valve oopen and no fan it would be very hot at the heater core. Another thought is the Exaust from the engine with the Converter is right there in the center of the car and running under the center that could be adding some heat I will have to check it out more

The Passenger Van has ductwork going under the the seats for the back seat heat. The hot air is directed down through that area, I am not sure if the work van has the ducts, but I supect that there is alot of hot air directed at that area as well It should stay cooler with the temp control in the cooling zone if they put in a water control valve for the heater. Have not checked out the water valve yet.

Rear Heating Problems, 2014 Transit Connect LWB Titanium
G B L replied to mrgone's topic in Climate Control
I am late to the conversation.. I had time today to check the parts diagram for the heater and the front heater core supplies heated air under the drivers and Passengers seat when the control is pointing to the feet . With the fan on 3 or 4 and the front temp control on high there is a fair amount of heated air under the Driver and Passengers seats . The intake for the rear heater is under the Drivers seat. This is not a great design but it might make more heat availiable for the rear of the vehicle This won't fix the Bad design but could help some. -
