Functional description

The additional heater unit is connected to the vehicle electrical system through connector D22. This connector, pin 2, receives a direct supply through the line protected by the maxifuse B37, which also supplies the diesel pre-heating system and by a specific fuse B38; pin 3 is earthed. Pin 1 of D22 is connected to the outside air temperature sensor K79 which, in turn, receives the reference supply from the alternator (D+ pin signal): in this way the signal for the outside temperature is only sent to the additional heater control unit if the engine is running. The additional heater control unit is equipped with an autodiagnostic system which can be used: by connecting the unit to connector R10: it receives signals from pin 4 of D22 via the diagnostic line.
