Son at college has a 2000 Acura TL. He said (last year I think but told me in the summer!) that the heat did not work. Plenty of AC, so something is working.
I won't see the car until thanksgiving, but looking for ideas. He did seem to have heat the first year we had it *2008) and probably after that.
I will read the manual and fiddle with the auto CC (I hate those things) to see if he just screwed up some setting, but I dread having to take this some place to get debugged. Can't imagine it is that easy to do!

2. Is the engine coolant up to temperature?
Sounds like it may be the valve that lets heated coolant flow into the heater core. If so, that could be the valve itself, or the signal that controls it.
What your feeling now is just the air that flows through when your moving forward.
from front vents. but the heat from defrost vents and at feet unbearable.
Appreciate if anyone could help here......thanks in advance.
If your car actually has an OFF for the fan instead of just on low speed, turning the fan on may also be engaging the AC compressor and the radiator cooling fans when you push just that button. Is the HVAC going from completely OFF to an AC mode?
