HEATING AND VENTILATION
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 80-13
Operation
Air distribution
Turning the distribution knob on the control panel turns the control flaps in the heater assembly to direct air to the
corresponding fascia and footwell outlets.
Air temperature
Turning the LH or RH temperature knob on the control panel turns the related blend flaps in the heater assembly. The
blend flaps vary the proportion of air going through the cold air bypass and the heater matrix. The proportion varies,
between full bypass no heat and no bypass full heat, to correspond with the position of the temperature knob.
Blower speed
The blower can be selected off or to run at one of four speeds. While the ignition is on, when the blower switch is set
to positions 1, 2, 3, or 4, ignition power energises the blower relay, which supplies battery power to the blower. At
switch positions 1, 2 and 3, the blower switch also connects the blower to different earth paths through the resistor
pack, to produce corresponding differences of blower operating voltage and speed. At position 4, the blower switch
connects an earth direct to the blower, bypassing the resistor pack, and full battery voltage drives the blower at
maximum speed.
Fresh/Recirculated inlet air
When the recirculated air switch is latched in, the amber indicator LED in the switch illuminates and an earth is
connected to the recirculated air side of the fresh/recirculated air servo motor. The fresh/recirculated air servo motor
then turns the control flaps in the air inlet duct to close the fresh air inlet and open the recirculated air inlets.
When the latch of the recirculated air switch is released, the amber indicator LED in the switch extinguishes and the
earth is switched from the recirculated air side to the fresh air side of the fresh/recirculated air servo motor. The fresh/
recirculated air servo motor then turns the control flaps in the air inlet duct to open the fresh air inlet and close the
recirculated air inlets.
FBH system (where fitted)
The FBH system operates only while the engine is running and the ambient temperature is less than 5 °C (41 °F).
With the engine running and the ambient temperature below 5 °C (41 °F), the air temperature sensor connects the
alternator power supply to the ECU in the FBH unit. On receipt of the alternator power supply, the ECU starts the
circulation pump and, depending on the input from the temperature sensor in the heat exchanger, enters either a
standby or active mode of operation. If the heat exchanger casing temperature is 65 °C (149 °F) or above, the ECU
enters a standby mode of operation. If the heat exchanger casing temperature is below 65 °C (149 °F), the ECU enters
an active mode of operation. In the standby mode, the ECU monitors the heat exchanger casing temperature and
enters the active mode if it drops below 65 °C (149 °F). In the active mode, the ECU initiates a start sequence and
then operates the system at full or part load combustion to provide the required heat input to the coolant.
Start sequence
At the beginning of the start sequence the ECU energises the glow plug function of the glow plug/flame sensor, to
preheat the combustion chamber, and starts the combustion air fan at slow speed. After 30 seconds, the ECU
energises the FBH fuel pump at the starting sequence speed. The fuel delivered by the FBH fuel pump evaporates in
the combustion chamber, mixes with air from the combustion air fan and is ignited by the glow plug/flame sensor. The
ECU then progressively increases the speed of the FBH fuel pump and the combustion air fan to either part or full
load speed, as required by the system. Once full or part load speed is achieved, the ECU switches the glow plug/flame
sensor from the glow plug function to the flame sensing function to monitor combustion. From the beginning of the
start sequence to stable combustion takes approximately 90 seconds for a start to part load combustion and 150
seconds for a start to full load combustion.
