4.Cut away the bulk of the panel as necessary
using an air saw.
NOTE: On certain panel joints MIG welds and
braze should be removed using a sander where
possible, before cutting out the panel bulk.
5.Separate spot welded joints and remove panel
remnants using hammer, bolster chisel and
pincers.
Prepare old surfaces
1.Remove any remaining sealant using a hot air
gun to minimise the risk of toxic fumes caused
by heat generated during welding.
CAUTION: Care must be taken to avoid
excessive heat build-up when using the hot
air gun.2.Clean all panel joint edges to a bright smooth
finish, using a belt-type sander.
NOTE: As an alternative, a disc sander may be
used.
3.Straighten existing panel joint edges using a
shaping block and hammer.

CORROSION PREVENTION AND SEALING
77-4-14 SEALING
Seam sealer - doors. Seams symmetrically opposite to those shown are also treated. Ensure drain holes in doors are
not blocked by sealant.
A heat cured, PVC based sealant is applied to specific joint seams during factory assembly. This material is not
suitable for service use and, during repair, should be substituted by an approved Seam Sealer.

+ BODY SEALING MATERIALS, MATERIALS AND APPLICATIONS, Approved materials.
Seams to which seam sealer is applied during factory assembly are detailed in the previous illustrations.
Apply seam sealers after the application of primer and before the application of surfacer and top coat. The seam
sealer must form a continuous bead, with the profile of the bead dependant on the type of seam. If seam sealer is
applied with a brush, take particular care to maintain the required coverage of the seam. Where shaping of the seam
sealer is required, use a cloth soaked with solvent such as white spirit or Shell SBP3 to achieve the required finish.
Ensure that ALL accessible repair seams are sealed following a repair. Damage to a vehicle often flexes areas of the
body remote from the impact. As a result, the seam sealer in these areas may be disturbed by subsequent
straightening and repair operations. Check all seams in the vicinity of the area undergoing repair for evidence of
cracked seam sealer, then clean out as required and apply fresh seam sealer using the following procedure:
lClean the affected seam and re-treat any exposed metal areas with a suitable etch phosphate primer;
lApply appropriate seam sealer as necessary;
lTreat affected area with an acid-etch prime (and underbody sealer as applicable);
lApply appropriate colour coat.
Where seams are inaccessible following the reassembly or fitting of components, ensure that a paste-type seam
sealer is applied to such seams. Certain seams also become inaccessible after the completion of panel repairs. In
such instances apply seam sealer and paint before final assembly.
Provided access is adequate, apply seam sealer to both sides of a repair joint. Where access is limited to one side
only (e.g. box sections), treat the affected box member with cavity wax.

HEATING AND VENTILATION
80-14DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Coolant temperature control
When the ECU first enters the active mode, it initiates a start to full load combustion. Full load combustion continues
until the heat exchanger casing temperature reaches 60 °C (140 °F), when the ECU decreases the speed of the FBH
fuel pump and the combustion air fan to half speed, to produce part load combustion. The ECU maintains part load
combustion while the heat exchanger casing temperature remains between 54 and 65 °C (129 and 149 °F). If the heat
exchanger casing temperature decreases to 54 °C (129 °F), the ECU switches the system to full load combustion
again. If the heat exchanger casing temperature increases to 65 °C (149 °F), the ECU enters a control idle phase of
operation.
On entering the control idle phase, the ECU immediately switches the FBH fuel pump off, to stop combustion, and
starts a timer for the combustion air fan. After a 2 minute cooldown period, the ECU switches the combustion air fan
off and then remains in the control idle phase while the heat exchanger casing temperature remains above 59 °C (138
°F). If the heat exchanger casing temperature decreases to 59 °C (138 °F), within 15 minutes of the ECU entering the
control idle phase, the ECU initiates a start to part load combustion. If more than 15 minutes elapse before the heat
exchanger casing temperature decreases to 59 °C (138 °F), the ECU initiates a start to full load combustion.
In order to limit the build-up of carbon deposits on the glow plug/flame sensor, the ECU also enters the control idle
phase if the continuous part and/or full load combustion time exceeds 72 minutes. After the cooldown period, if the
heat exchanger casing is still in the temperature range that requires additional heat, the ECU initiates an immediate
restart to part or full load combustion, as appropriate.
Shutdown
The FBH system is de-activated when the alternator power supply to the FBH unit is disconnected, either by the
engine stopping or, if the ambient temperature increases to 5 °C (41 °F) or above, by the contacts in the air
temperature sensor opening. If the system is active when the alternator power supply is disconnected, the ECU de-
energises the FBH fuel pump to stop combustion, but continues operation of the combustion air fan and the circulation
pump to cool down the FBH unit. The cool down time depends on the combustion load at the time the alternator power
input is disconnected.
Cool down times
Diagnostics
The ECU in the FBH unit monitors the system for faults. Any faults detected are stored in a volatile memory in the the
ECU, which can be interrogated by Testbook. A maximum of three faults and associated freeze frame data can be
stored at any one time. If a further fault is detected, the oldest fault is overwritten by the new fault.
The ECU also incorporates an error lockout mode of operation that inhibits system operation to prevent serious faults
from causing further damage to the system. In the error lockout mode, the ECU immediately stops the FBH fuel pump,
and stops the combustion air fan and circulation pump after a cool down time of approximately 2 minutes. Error lockout
occurs for start sequence failures and/or combustion flameouts, heat exchanger casing overheat and out of limit input
voltage. The error lockout mode can be cleared using Testbook, or by disconnecting the battery power supply for a
minimum of 10 seconds.
Start failure/flameout. If a start sequence fails to establish combustion, or a flameout occurs after combustion is
established, the ECU immediately initiates another start sequence. The start failure or flameout is also recorded by
an event timer in the ECU. The event timer is increased by one after each start failure or flameout, and decreased by
one if a subsequent start is successful. If the event timer increases to three (over any number of drive cycles), the
ECU enters the error lockout mode.
Heat exchanger casing overheat. To protect the system from excessive temperatures, the ECU enters the error
lockout mode if the heat exchanger casing temperature exceeds 105 °C (221 °F).
Out of limit voltage. The ECU enters the error lockout mode if the battery or alternator power input is less than 10.5 ±
0.3 V for more than 20 seconds, or more than 15.5 ± 0.5 V for more than 6 seconds.
