Sometimes they're unwittingly anchored too close to a wall preventing sufficient air intake for the fan to operate effectively. The sensor will either disable the unit or (As I've learnt) burn out the motor as it didn't have a sensor.

I have three different kinds of these heaters and four different display modules. It is frustrating to fail in pairing the remote control to one of them. The guide is a miniaturized booklet with bad images and has guidance for six different display modules, but the one I have is not there. These models all behave differently. I am a bit confused of the incompatibility and mixup caused by the manufacturer in this matter. Maybe I will sort this out later. Thanks for these advice

This was a super helpful video! What i'm struggling with though is the slowly dropping voltage during startup - and it trips out with E01 after a short 30-60. Tried different sources (living vs vehicle battery) with no luck. Any tips?

@tonyminides1 Жыл бұрын

Hi Jeff. When the heater goes through the startup procedure, it draws a lot of power. Thin power cables or not enough current will cause the pump to give the error E01. Try connecting it with thick wires as close to the car's battery as possible. I had the same problem.

@flameoflifecreations8959 8 ай бұрын

I'll mirror what he said. Long lines and/or undersized wires will cause excessive voltage drop. I'll give two examples to illustrate the effect wire size plays into voltage drop. Both calculated at: 13vdc starting voltage 15 feet of wire 12amp load (glow plug and fan). Ending voltages 18awg stranded wire: 9.96vdc (-23.4%) 12awg stranded wire:12.26vdc (-5.68%) Solutions: Increase wire size Decrease wire lengths Double or triple your wires if you only have access to small wires. (If you triple the + and - wire runs using the 18awg wire in example 1 the voltage drop only drops to 11.99vdc (-7.8%). Hopefully this is helpful.

Hi there, great video, very clear 👍 I have two questions if you don’t mind helping. I’m using my heater for the first time (used vw multivan t5) and there is a lot of smoke coming out from the exhaust outside the van. How can I resolve this and is it dangerous ? And also, when I set the temperature the screen shows the desired ambient temperature up top and also below another temperature (I presume the output temperature) but that climbs up really high during the heating cycle, to 156+C degrees C. Is this normal ? Should I be worried, or is this normal ? Thanks so much for any help you can provide! 🙏

@vanlifesurvivorsguide 2 ай бұрын

Hi mate, yeah you might have over primed it and the excess fuel is burning off it should clear. if it doesn't let me know it could be a setting problem. Not it's not dangerous as long as the smoke is outside. Greta Thunberg probably wouldn't be your mate though. Yeah the internal temp will sometimes go above 200c thats normal it is a little furnace. Its totally safe the inside of your oven gets hotter when cooking roast potatoes and it is how they work. All is good

Mine doesn’t stop or reduce power when it hits the target temperature. I checked it after about 25-mins and it was reading at 175-degrees Celsius!!! Very dangerous

@vanlifesurvivorsguide 3 ай бұрын

that will be the body temp, its quite normal. Was it in power mode or temp mode?

@BigSuzeCamperVan 3 ай бұрын

First time I tried it was in temp Mode set to 18-degrees. Was about 35-degrees in the van and reading 175 in the control panel, with no sign of stopping. Tried in powder mode on lowest setting which caused it to stay around 120- but would just keep getting hotter if I left it on. Makes me feel very nervous, especially with kids in the van tbh. Will just get a small electric heater for future I think.

@@BigSuzeCamperVan its a furnace though, the inside temp should get to about 250 or 270 depending on the heater. kind of similar to a home oven. this is normal and nothing to worry about. The can constantly pulls cool air over the heater body so even the plastic wont get very hot

Yeah makes sense. I’m just not sure why it doesn’t switch over to low power mode when it’s reached the target temperature in the van. That is how I assumed it should work from the way you described in your video (when in temperature mode)

Just received mine. Doesn’t work like this whatsoever. Ugh so frustrating. The manual is incomprehensible

@@randomasalways Yea I tried to follow that video when I was setting mine up. The only thing that worked the same was the pump priming. My top leds only display the ambient temp in ⁰C, and I can only change heat output from levels 1-5. I don't have error codes, and I can't get into advanced settings. I'll try to get a video tomorrow or Monday

Hi sir could you tell me how to set alpine mode

@trellgoebel9670 Жыл бұрын

How do I change the altitude? My other controller is different than this one and I have to put it in plateau mode. The controller says it's 856m and it should be set at 675m.

@trellgoebel9670 Жыл бұрын

I figured I out, the altitude changes automatically with the temp/fan setting. Altitude is still not correct but seems to be working ok.
