Hey people,
On a westfalia California there is the rear heater vent on the panel under the Rock and roll bed which blows air into the cabin is this correct?
How will I test this is working when I view one and if it's not working is it a big job to fix?
Thanks

Turn it on. Listen for a slight ticking under the van. That's the fuel pump. See of it blows warm air into the van. If it works for 5 mins continuously then it's good I would say.

Mine still works fine from an 86 van. But your will be newer.

Easy to fix?, how longs a piece of string. Depends what's wrong if it doesn't work.

They are easily accessible from under the van provided your handy.

Thanks for the advice I'm not talking about the night heater but the heater that runs of the temp of the engine I'm sure it's located under the rock and roll bed?
