Breakout box and checking ground terminals

Is the breakout box connected? Have the ground terminals been checked?

  1. YES Refer to «Checking the control voltage to the damper motor»(ref-441378-S23082016902011121500000)
  2. NO Refer to «Areas of use for the breakout box»(ref-441378-S31055717142011121500000)

Areas of use for the breakout box

Breakout box 9813190 is designed to facilitate reading off

  1. the control module input and output signals when the control module is connected
  2. the resistance of cables and components with the control module disconnected.

The breakout box makes it safer to take readings because it is easier to see and access measurement points. The risk of accidental short-circuits and damaged connector pins is also reduced.

Turn off the power to the ECC control module when connecting the breakout box otherwise the control module may be damaged and incorrect diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored.

Selecting Parking heater or Additional heater

Fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can differ depending whether the heater is functioning as an Additional Heater or as a Parking heater as well.

The major difference between the two methods is that the Additional heater has the fuel pump (FP) installed at the heater and the fuel lines are connected to the return side on the engine fuel system at the engine. If the installation is used as a parking heater the fuel pump is installed at the fuel tank and the fuel lines are routed from the fuel tank to the heater, there is also a Timer installed in the passenger compartment.

  3. With the ignition on and the glow plug electrical terminal disconnected, the voltage between the glow plug electrical terminal (control module side) and ground must be approximately 9 V
  4. For other values, see «Signal specification Additional heater 912-D/B»(ref-441327-S29371187082011121500000) .
  1. Continue Refer to «Information»(ref-441378-S25188922692011121500000) OKAY: Troubleshooting has been completed.

HINT: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.

  1. Ignition off
  2. Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
  3. Ignition on (with additional heater start the engine). NOTE: On cars where the heater functions as a parking heater there is no +15 voltage supply to the control module. The heater is activated using the timer stop and start buttons instead of VIDA vehicle communication. Individual components and functions cannot be activated when the +15 voltage supply is absent.
  4. Activate the heater. Check the function of the heater according to «Test running the additional heater/parking heater»(ref-441329-S35477619402011121500000) .

Does the heater operate?

  1. YES VERIFIED: Troubleshooting has been completed.
  2. NO Refer to «Information»(ref-441378-S25188922692011121500000)

The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.

Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.

Fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can differ depending whether the heater is functioning as an Additional Heater or as a Parking heater as well.

The major difference between the two methods is that the Additional heater has the fuel pump (FP) installed at the heater and the fuel lines are connected to the return side on the engine fuel system at the engine. If the installation is used as a parking heater the fuel pump is installed at the fuel tank and the fuel lines are routed from the fuel tank to the heater, there is also a Timer installed in the passenger compartment.

Is the heater also used as a parking heater?

  1. YES Refer to «Checking fuel lines, parking heater»(ref-441378-S06219516862011121500000)
  2. NO Refer to «Checking fuel lines, additional heater»(ref-441378-S38001998682011121500000)
WARNINGUse protective gloves and protective goggles to reduce risk from fuel spillage.
  1. To expose the heater and get access to the fuel lines, refer to «Removing bumper»(ref-441328-S09218020772011121500000) . Check fuel lines between connection point at the engine fuel system and heater via fuel pump (FP), for damage and leakage. Also check fuel lines for blockage. Remedy as necessary.

WARNINGUse protective gloves and protective goggles to reduce risk from fuel spillage.

HINT: The fuel pump (FP) is installed in the fuel tank instead of on the heater when the Additional Heater is also used as a parking heater.

  1. Ignition on.
  2. Activate heater in order to start the pump. The pump does not start directly after starting the heater. Check if the fuel pump is operating, a "ticking" sound should be audible. If the pump is not working, install a new fuel pump.

Is the pump operating?

  1. YES Refer to «Checking nozzle pipe»(ref-441378-S19020400682011121500000)
  2. NO Refer to «Verification»(ref-441378-S28740022702011121500000)

Checking nozzle pipe

  1. Remove heater according to «Replacing heat exchanger»(ref-441328-S04127342072011121500000) .
  2. Disconnect nozzle pipe according to «Replacing fuel injection nozzle, fan motor and nozzle pipe»(ref-441328-S40600138662011121500000) . Check that the nozzle pipe seems OK and that it is not blocked. Remedy as necessary.

Remedy as necessary.

Other information

  1. To access/replace the flame sensor, see «Overheating protection thermostat, flame sensor and Coolant temperature sensor, replace»(ref-441328-S21357157812011121500000) .

Was a fault detected?

  1. YES Refer to «Verification»(ref-441378-S28740022702011121500000)
  2. NO Refer to «Checking component and cables»(ref-441378-S40409540582011121500000)

Check cable between control module #4 and flame trap ground terminal for an open-circuit according to Open-circuit, permanent faults .

HINT: Because it is difficult to separate the flame sensor cables measure between control module #4 and both flame sensor cables.

Check cable between control module #8 and flame sensor signal terminal for an open-circuit according to Open-circuit, permanent faults and a short-circuit to supply voltage according to Short-circuit to supply voltage. Permanent faults .

HINT: Because it is difficult to separate the flame sensor cables try to measure one flame sensor cable at a time and see if there is a relevant value on either of them.

If no fault is found in the connectors or cables, try a new flame sensor.

Note. Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) HEA-142 outside temperature sensor signal and/or HEA-801 Coolant temperature sensor signal can be stored if there is a fault in the ground lead.

Remedy as necessary.
