Default No heat in my car!!!

The other day i noticed that the temp gauge was below normal which caused cool air to below then intermittenly it would reach normal levels and I would feel the heat. Ok so i changed the thermostat after I explained to member and mechanic. Unanimously it was the thermostat. Well today I changed the thermostat all coolant levels are fine. Temp gauge is fine but now no HEAT!!! WTF!! Weigh In!!

Where is the needle on your coolant gauge after the car is warmed up?

Do you literally have no heat at all? Or is it just weak? Is the air temperature the same coming from both the driver and passenger sides?

You might have an air bubble in your system from changing the thermostat

could be a coincidence and the servos could have taken a dump. happened to me after a thermostat when bad, but i did get heat on the passenger side, hence the Servo.
