Heater

Ok, hello every one. I have a 1988 Camry with ac and the push button heater controls. Im new here but for the past two days ive just been researching problems here on this forum. Im having problems with my heater. At first it was only blowing cold air. So I found that discussion about resoldering the 2 contacts. So I did that now, I only have luke warm and thats it. The car is full of anitfreeze and I just put a new thermostat in it. Any Ideas? thanks.

Maybe your heater core needs a cleaning. If enough dirt and dust gets into it the airflow past it doesn't pick up much heat, the other possibility is the blend door that diverts air past the heater core isn't opening fully.
