Galaxy Low Heating Output

I'm having trouble with the heating output in my 2006 Ford Galaxy diesel. It's too low, and there's an error stored. The car only has 35093 km on it. I'm wondering if it's a water valve issue, maybe a bad cable or plug connection.

I had a similar problem with my Galaxy, though it was a different year. Low heating output was the main symptom. Did you check the engine coolant level? It could also be a valve blockage, or just a cooling system malfunction.

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, the coolant level seems fine. Could you say which valve you think might be blocked?

The error went away on its own for me, but I kept hearing gurgling noises. I'm guessing it was the automotive valve. I'm no expert, though. I'd suggest a workshop visit before the engine overheats.

Thanks for the advice. I took it to a workshop. It cost 95€ to repair. Turns out it was a defective plug connection, just like I thought.
