5.0  Troubleshooting 

5.1  General Information

 

If a malfunction occurs, a flashing code is displayed on the operating indicator or a fault code F .. on the combination 
timer. 

In addition, the heater can be checked using a personal computer (see Webasto PC Thermo Test PC Diagnosis operating 
manual). 

IMPORTANT: 

Troubleshooting work demands precise knowledge of the structure and theory of operation of the various 

components and must be carried out by trained personnel only. The functional relationships are described in Chapter 2 
and 3. 

IMPORTANT: 

The troubleshooting guide is restricted to the localization of defective components. 

The following fault causes should always be checked or a fault should be excluded for the following reasons: 

 

Corrosion on connector 

 

Loose connection on connector 

 

Poor crimp contacts on plugs 

 

Corrosion on lines and fuses 

 

Corrosion on battery terminals 

If you wish to check individual components, the electrical plug connectors on the control unit must be disconnected.   

Conduct a function test in the vehicle after rectifying each fault.   

A direct operation of the individual components (with voltage) is not permitted. 

5.2  General Error Symptoms

 

The following table lists possible fault symptoms. 

 

Error  S ymptom

 

Possible  Cause

 

Remedy

 

Heater cuts out automatically

 

No combustion after starting and restarting 
Operating display flashes 

 

Flame extinguishes during operation 
Operating display flashes 

 

Heater overheated 
Operating display flashes 

 

Vehicle voltage too low 
Operating display flashes

 

Switch heater off and then on again 

Switch heater off and then on again 

Check the hot air guide for free passage, al- 
low the heater to cool down, then briefly 
switch the heater off and then on again 

 

Charge battery 
Switch heater off and then on again

 

Heater emits black smoke

 

Combustion air and/or exhaust system 
blocked

 

Check that the combustion air and exhaust 
systems are clear
