Failure Symptom

Possible Cause

Remedy

Burner switches off auto-

matically (fault lockout)

No combustion after start or automatic 

repeat start

Flame extinguishes during operation

Burner overheats

Switch off burner and switch back on.

•  Check coolant lines for obstructions, closed valves, and kinks.

•  Check coolant level, purge any air. Allow burner to cool down. 

Check for failure codes.

• 

Charge/replace batteries.

•  Switch off burner and switch back on.

Heater is letting out black 

smoke from the exhaust

Combustion air and/or exhaust tube is 

blocked

Check combustion air intake and or/ exhaust tube.

General Failure Symptoms of the Burner

This section will cover the typical failures of the diesel burner. Refer to the table more fails and their remedies.

Burner Troubleshooting

Burner does not switch on

Heater is without electrical power

Check power supply to the unit and ground connections.

Burner switches off during 

operation (= fault lock-out)

Burner has overheated due to lack of 

coolant

Refill antifreeze and water mixture.

Service of the Burner

The service or maintenance should be done once a year to 

maintain the functional reliability of the burner. The service and 

any repairs must only be performed by trained technicians.

Proper preventive maintenance greatly improves the burner 

performance.

•  Visual inspection of the burner for any external damage, 

fastening, and also external cleaning (make sure power 

is disconnected before any cleaning).

•  Inspect electrical connections for corrosion, making 

sure they are all properly secured and free of any kinks, 

cracks, or damage.

•  Check the exhaust and combustion air lines for signs of 

damage and make sure they are clear of debris or any 

blockages.

•  Check fuel lines for any leaks, kinks, cracks, or damage.
•  Check plumbing lines and circulation pump to make 

sure they are properly secured and free of any damage.

•  Check the fuel pump and circulation pump for any 

damage.

•  Run the burner for 20 minutes once a month.
•  Clean the burner of any debris or dust with compressed 

air.

• 

Change the fuel filter once a year.

System Checks

Please  do  the  following  checks  prior  to  the  first  operation  to 

confirm the installation was done properly and safely.

1. 

Confirm  that  the  Aqua-Hot  125DN  is  fully  and  properly 

installed. It must be adequately filled of fluid and purged 

of any excess air.

2. 

Confirm the burner is properly and securely mounted, all 

bracket fasteners are tightened.

3. 

Confirm that there is ample space between the burner and 

any heat-generating parts such as the exhaust.

4. 

Confirm that there is ample space between the burner and 

any moving vehicle parts during all system operations.

5.  Make sure the burner is installed in location that is free 

from any splashing water or debris, and protected from 

other components installed in the same compartment.

6.  There should be substantial separation from the burner 

and the ground.

7.  There should be enough space between the vehicle body 

and any heat-generating components like the exhaust and 

burner.

8.  Ensure there is protection on any sharp edges or objects.
9. 

Confirm that all of the plumbing and fuel lines are free from 

any kinks or sharp bends, and are not pinched or could be 

potentially cut.

10.  Make sure all the hose clamps are properly positioned and 

secured.

11. 

Ensure  that  there  is  an  adequate  amount  of  fluid  in  the 

system, and it has been purged of any air.

12. Make sure there is more than a ¼ tank of fuel and the 

operating voltage to greater than 11.5V.

13. 

Confirm that the plumbing lines leading from the burner to 

the 125DN are below the expansion bottle.

14.  Ensure that all wiring is properly secured and away from 

any moving parts or heat sources.

15.  Make sure the power and ground connections are properly 

secured and installed. 

Never operate the burner in closed rooms such as garages 

or workshops that do not have proper ventilation. Please 

be  sure  to  confirm  all  the  system  checks  prior  to  the  first 

operation.

16.  Check all plumbing connections for leaks.
17. 

Check that the fuses are in their proper, specified locations.

18.  Make sure the fuse boxes are secure and protected from 

any water sources.

19.  Ensure the vehicle battery is mounted properly and all 

connections are secure, and has a full charge.

20. Make sure the fuel standpipe is properly and securely 

mounted in the fuel tank.

21.  The standpipe should not interfere with the vehicle fuel 

delivery system. Check the fuel gauge for proper operation.

22. 

Confirm all fuel lines are secured and spaced safely away 

from exhaust or other heat-generating components.

23. Make sure the fuel pump is installed in a cool place. It is 

recommended to install the fuel pump in the same location 

as the vehicle fuel tank.

24.  Make sure the exhaust and clamps are properly secured.
25. The exhaust tube should be a safe distance from any 

flammable materials (at least 2in).

26. 

Confirm  there  are  holes  drilled  in  any  low  points  in  the 

exhaust tube.

27.  Exhaust opening should be a safe distance away from any 

vehicle interior openings and should be directed to not 

cause back pressure while driving.

28. The combustion air intake should get fresh air away from 

the direction of travel.

29. Ensure the air intake system is properly secured.
30. All plumbing and fuel lines should be purged of any air, as 

any air can cause a lock-out.

Once the system checks are complete and it has been confirmed 

that all is properly and safely installed, please continue to the 

first operation.

NOTE:

 The burner must not be started until it has been 

properly checked by a professional technician. The burner 

must be installed professionally in accordance to the 

installation instructions.

System Checks

Please  do  the  following  checks  prior  to  the  first  operation  to 

confirm the installation was done properly and safely.

• 

Make sure the fluid temperature is below 122°F.

•  Check all connections for leaks.
•  CO

2

 settings should be set to factory settings.

•  Refer to the troubleshooting procedure if the heater 

switches to fault lock-out condition.
