sure its that? could be thermostat.....

If not try Dstocks and why do you need a heater here? no such thing as winter in Australia

I would be inclined to go towards the thermostat too; they are a weak link in most cars if the heater fails. When failing they won't pass heated water through to the heater system, thus no heat.

Check that first before you waste money...

Edit, I believe that you can put them into a pot of boiling water to test them; don't know the specifics.
