SOURCE: our 2001 Chevrolet Astro Van heater not working?

Could be a bad heater core, any fluid leaking around it...check under the carpet and padding if you don't see anything under it on the ground. Your coolant may also be low, and it isn't circulating to the heater core, or a vacuum line may be off the hot/cold gate on the heater box, there are a lot of possible causes, but i would check for leaks and fluid level first

SOURCE: Air, no heat '98 Astro. No leaks, engine

It sounds to me that you may have 2 problems. 1). Air Lock in the Heater Core. 2). Inactive Heat Damper in the Plenum.

But since you state that the Heater Hoses do not get warm that is indicative of an Air Lock in the Heater Core. This is a relatively simple fix. It is best performed COLD but requires a method of pressurizing the Cooling System. All reputable Auto Parts stores Sell and/or Rent Pumps that temporarily replace the Radiator Pressure Cap for Leak tests and curing Air Lock. The Collant Level must be filled FULL then pressurized and then loosening the Highest Heater Hose at the Firewall so that Air and a Small Amount of Coolant escapes. Once all the Air has escaped tighten the Heater Hose Clamp, remove the Pressure Pump, Restore the Collant Level to FULL, re-install the Pressure Cap and Start the Engine. As it Warms up you should be able to feel coolant running through the Heater Hoses and they should become warm.

The air conditioning does not blow through front vents but through windshield vents, what is the problem?

This is a common problem on all Astro/Safari vans. The problem is a leak in the vaccum lines that control the vaccum switch responsible for changing air direction from the defrosters, dash vents, floor vents..etc.
Many of the problems that plaque the Astro/Sarfari vans and many other "Mini-Vans" is the build up of excess heat in the engine compartment. It\'s a tight place to put a V6-4.3 Vortec engine and the heat generated bounces back and cooks everything on the engine (coils, modules, sensors, wiring, and of course plastic vaccum hoses). No need to mess with your switches or anything behind the dash -- replace those thin plastic vaccum hoses to operate the vaccum switch (located just below the A/C canisters, to the right of the heater/ac blower housing) and your dash switches will magically send heated or cooled air where you want it.

Minimal heat coming out of defrost, more than vac problem?

The vacuum line you're looking for is in front of the throttle body. It runs from the top of the pvc valve on the drivers side of the engine and crosses in front of the throttle body down to the tee near the a/c accumulator. When you replace the hose use a piece of wire loom to cover the hose so that the engine heat will not break it again.
