Additional heater functional sequence
Additional heater functional sequence
Notes:
-
◆ The additional heater is cut in by the engine control unit and can be switched off by pressing the "Econ" button on the -E87 AC operating and display unit or on the heater controls, if additional heating output is not desired.
-
◆ A -V55 recirculating pump is currently not installed, given that the additional heater can only be switched on with the engine running.
-
◆ Depending on the amount of heat generated by the engine, supplied by the AC heat exchangers, and generated by the heater, the heater unit may remain in the full load, part load or control interval operating statuses for a lengthy period .
-
◆ As the additional heater only operates when the engine is running, it is scarcely perceptible in heating mode. Run-on of the heater can be heard if the engine is switched off, if it was operating when the engine was switched off.
-
◆ The temperature sensor (for the coolant temperature in the heater) is permanently installed (in the heater control unit -J162) and can neither be checked nor removed.
-
◆ The glow plug with flame detector -Q8 is actuated with a regulated voltage to prevent overheating.
-
◆ To ensure that combustion in the heater is always in the optimum range, the metering pump -V54 (clock frequency) and combustion air blower -V6 (voltage) are regulated over the entire sequence.
-
◆ The temperatures given in the functional sequence and function chart are approximate.
-
◆ Contact 3 of the 6-pin connector on the additional heater is connected to the engine control unit on vehicles with diesel engines.
=> Relevant Workshop Manual, Diesel Direct Injection and Glow Plug System; Repair group 01
=> Current Flow Diagrams, Electrical Fault-finding and Fitting Locations binder
-
◆ If in "diesel" type additional heaters, contact 3 in connector B is connected to earth, the additional heater is switched on.
-
◆ If the additional heater does not switch on for vehicles with diesel engine, check the adaption in adaption channel "10" for additional heaters with a control unit as of software version "D50"=> Page01-88
-
◆ If the heater has been locked due to a malfunction (e.g. misfire or overheating) (completely switched off) it cannot be switched on again until the fault memory has been read out and the content of the fault memory erased.
-
◆ If the heater is to be switched off during the start procedure, the instantaneous position reached in the start sequence governs whether the heater is switched off immediately or whether run-on is necessary(burning off, cooling down).
-
◆ The heater switches to control interval if the coolant temperature exceeds 77 °C before reaching full-load mode (e.g. withahot engine).
-
◆ Various additional heater functions are monitored constantly during operation (the additional heater is switched off if a fault occurs):
- Cut-off due to undervoltage if supply voltage drops below specified cut-off voltage (e.g. due to a transition resistance in the power supply)
-Cut-off due to overvoltage if the supply voltage is greater than 15.5 V for longer than 6 seconds.
-Cut-off due to loss of flame if resistance of -Q8 glow plug with flame detector drops below specified value (e.g. loss of flame due to fault in fuel supply).
- Cut-off due to overheating if coolant temperature in heater exceeds 125 °C (e.g. due to lack of coolant, due to a fault in the coolant circuit).
-
◆ The -J162 additional heater control unit also has the auxiliary heater and auxiliary ventilation modes stored. However, an actuation is not provided for on the Audi A2 (no recirculating pump is installed and the required connections are not present).
=> Audi A8 auxiliary/additional heater
=> Audi A6 auxiliary heater
Prerequisites for the sequence described on the following pages (when switching on heater):
Coolant circuit is bled and coolant temperature is less than 20 °C.
Battery -A is sufficiently charged.
Sufficient fuel in tank.
No faults stored in heater fault memory.
Engine running (heater with no recirculating pump -V55, additional heater).
Notes:
-
◆ Only the main items in the function sequence are presented on the following pages. Sequences taking place in the background are marked with a "-"and perceptible sequences (which can be heard or measured with. "▪"
-
◆ As the additional heater is only switched on at outside temperatures of less than +6 °C, Using the vehicle diagnostic, testing and information system VAS 5051 ("Basic setting" function), the additional heater may also be switched on at higher ambient temperatures. This, however, results in deviations for e.g. the various additional heater switching temperatures.
