    It's a 2006 379. I stopped for the night went to turn on the heat to the bunk and nothing. I double checked I turned it on in the cab and the sleeper and still nothing. Why would this be happening to me? Luckily the heat in the cab kinda keeps back here warm also lol.

    Maybe some type of coolant line spicket valve was shut off for the summer that's normally located on the right side of the engine or firewall. Does the blower in the sleeper actually turn on?

    With an older truck, consider yourself lucky if that's the only issue you have this week. Mines nearly as old. There's always something that needs a wrench thrown at it.

    Check your fuses.
