HI

just tried out new van last weekend, having problems with the airtronic mini controller heating system. when operating the mini controller device all seems to be working fine,except no heat comimg out of any of the vents?
i am getting an air flow but no heat at all? i have tried many ways with this device to get it to warm up, but no good, all air but no warm air?

any ideas?

cheers kevin...

First thing - have you got the temp. turned up?
Then does the red led light up?
I can send you a pdf copy of the instructions if you need them.

Stand-alone mini-controller
Start heater – heating mode:
Use the button to start the heater in heating mode
(continuous operation). You can adjust the required temperature
with the control knob . If the heater is in heating mode, the red
LED lights up as a check.
Start heater – ventilation mode:
Use the button to start the heater in ventilation mode
(continuous operation). The control knob has no function in
ventilation mode. If the heater is in ventilation mode, the blue
LED lights up as a check.
Switch off heater:
Use the button to switch off the heater. Heater or ventilation
mode is terminated and the corresponding LED goes out.
Heating mode is terminated with after run.
Set preselected ventilation mode at the mini-controller:
Use the button to select ventilation mode – the preselection is
saved. The temperature-preset controller has no function in
ventilation mode. The blue LED lights up for approx. 3 secs
as confirmation. However the heater is not started.
b) Heater is switched on (mini-clock active)
The ON / OFF button is used to switch on the saved mode
(heater / ventilation – preselected by the mini-controller). If the
heater is in Heater mode, the red LED lights up, in ventilation
mode the blue LED lights up as a check.
Change between heating and ventilation modes using
the mini-controller:
Use the button to change to heater mode.
The set temperature required can be adjusted using the temperature
preset controller. If the heater is in heater mode the red LED
lights up as a check.
The preset operating mode is updated.
Use the button to change to ventilation mode.
The temperature-preset controller has no function in ventilation
mode. If the heater is in ventilation mode, the blue LED lights up
as a check. The preselected operating mode is updated.
Heater mode is terminated with after run.
Change the required set temperature using the mini-controller:
The required temperature can be adjusted at any time during
heating mode using the temperature-preset controller.
Emergency operation –
error when presetting the operating mode:
The preset operating mode was not able to be saved.
The red LED flashes for approx. 10 secs. The mini-controller
then switches to emergency operation (Preset heater mode).
The heater remains switched off. Emergency operation can be
reversed by carrying out the preselection process again or using
a voltage reset (pull out the fuse).
If the heater is switched on by the mini-clock in emergency
mode, the red LED lights up and flashes. The heater is in heater
mode with preset set value.
It is not possible to change the operating mode in emergency
mode. The heater can only be switched off via the mini-clock.

Blimey!! Looking at that list of intsructions you need to be a rocket scientist to understand em'.

Glad my Carver one just has an on-off switch and a temperature dial with the gas controls separate. It may be basic but it's not complicated and it works!
