Blowing hot air

Post by togga »

My heater is blowing hot air all the time, even when set to cool flow & it's getting mighty hot in the cab. The cooling system seems ok, so is it problem with the heater itself?

If its an Aircooled, then the easy way is to cable tie the flaps, open in winter + closed in summer. 5 minute job for both sides. Easiest if you remove the rear wheel for access
