HEATER VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1 APPLICABILITY
1. WARNING: NEVER OPERATE THE HEATER IN AN ENCLOSED AREA THAT DOES
NOT HAVE EXHAUST VENTILATION FACILITIES. ALWAYS VENT THE HEATER's
EXHAUST WHEN OPERATING THE HEATER. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE IN-
STRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
2. WARNING: ALLOW THE HEATER ASSEMBLY TO COOL BEFORE PERFORMING A
COMPONENT INSPECTION/REPAIR/REPLACEMENT. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
3. NOTE: The heater's control unit will store up to five DTCs in its memory.
4. NOTE: If the heater's control unit detects a new fault in the system, one that is not
already stored in its memory, it will clear the oldest of the five stored DTCs, and it
will store the new fault's DTC.
5. NOTE: If the heater's control unit detects a reoccurrence of a stored fault, it will
overwrite that fault's DTC with the most recent occurrence.
6. Verify that the vehicle's battery is fully charged.
7. Verify that there is more than 1/8 of a tank of fuel in the vehicle's fuel tank. Add fuel, if
necessary.
8. Verify that all heater's coolant hoses and fuel lines are securely fastened to their respective
components.
9. Disconnect all jumper wires and reconnect all previously disconnected components and
connectors.
10. If a heater installation/cooling system service was performed, purge the coolant circuit of air
in accordance with the Service Information.
11. Turn the ignition on.
12. Verify that the Cabin Heater or Heater Booster is switched off.
13. Ensure that all accessories are turned off.
14. Set the blend control to the max heat position and the mode control to the floor position.
15. If a fuel system service requiring fuel to drain out of the heater's fuel line was performed,
prime the heater's Dosing Pump in accordance with the Service Information.
16. With the DRBIIIt, record and erase all DTCs from the Cabin Heater Module or Heater
Booster Module. Turn the ignition off, wait 5 seconds, then turn start the engine.
17. Allow the engine to idle.
18. NOTE: Do not disconnect the vehicle's battery or the heater's main power supply
while the heater is in operation or in run-down mode. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in excess emissions from the heater during heater operation.
19. Switch the Cabin Heater or Heater Booster on. Allow the heater to run through at least one
cycle of operation (approximately 10 minutes), and then turn the heater off.
20. With the DRBIIIt, read the Cabin Heater or Heater Booster Module's DTC.
21. Turn the engine off.
Are any DTC's present or is the original condition still present?All
Ye s!Repair is not complete, refer to the appropriate symptom.
No!Repair is complete.
