2889423 - E6010 HEATER - Description

Description

The vehicle climate control system involves a duct/distributor unit with a heater, controlled via three knobs in the dashboard:

  • the left knob mechanically controls the mixture flap between hot and cold air;
  • the right knob, mechanically operated via a cable, controls the opening of the flaps which regulate the distribution of air flows;
  • the centre knob electrically controls the ventilation of the air at four different speeds; two versions are available: one with three speeds and one with four speeds;
The operation of the fan at different speeds is achieved through a resistive divider, protected by a special thermal fuse to prevent overheating.There is also a cursor on the control panel, located under the knobs, which mechanically regulates the 'recirculation' function via a cable. For more details,  see DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION: 5020  HEATERThe control panel is lit up when the side lights are on.The fan circuit is protected by a specific fuse, in the junction unit under the dashboard, controlled by the passenger compartment air fan relay, located in the duct/distributor unit.The fan only operates when the ignition is switched ON.
