When you say heater is not working.
Electrically ? Heat wise? Fan wise?
Cheers

Hi thanks for replying, it's just blowing cold air, it was a bit intermittent at first (hot then cold) but now just cold air blowing.

OK,
Have you checked your water level?
Is yours the mechanical system, ( not the Electronic climate control system?)
Can you hear the flaps operating to select hot air?
Have you got a copy of the workshop manual to look at how the system works?

OK,
Best thing to do, is check your heater pipes going into the bulkhead above the engine in the engine bay to see if the are hot.If they are then chances are you have something wrong with the heater controls.
Download the Rave workshop manual here http://www.green-oval.com/data/lr/ you need to download rave01 this contains all the info to show how it should work.
Oh, and make sure you have the EKA code. read this https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/hellooo.310630/#post-3912846

Work backwards. As said check the pipes to the heater box to see if hot. If they are then the water pump is working. If its blowing air then the motors working. You can check the electrical feed by putting a multimeter across the input (purple is live and each green is an earth depending on the position of the switch. Manually move the cable arm on the box that controls hot and cold and see if that makes a difference (theres only two, if its the same as mine its the top one) . Sounds like the hot/cold heater control is stuck/broken. Unlikely to be the arm on the box more likely the cable either at the adjuster at the switch or at the arm on the box.
Thanks I'll have a look.

Mines a defender but the principle is the same. Should be able to unplug the heater unit to test it electrically.

When this happened to me the water pump was about to give up. All I got was cold air blowing. This was on a Defender.
