Why won't the parking heater ignite?
1 Answers
Parking heater failure to ignite indicates either the parking heater is malfunctioning or the car battery's charging capacity has declined. The parking heater is an onboard heating device for the car engine, equipped with its own fuel pipeline, electrical combustion heating system, etc. It can preheat and warm up a parked car engine in cold winter conditions without starting the engine, preventing cold-start wear on the vehicle. Common parking heater fault analysis: 1. For indicator light flashing situations, check the flashing frequency against the fault code table to identify the faulty component. If the indicator light stays on constantly, it may indicate control circuit failure or unconnected ground wire - repair or replace corresponding parts. 2. If the glow plug is damaged, use a multimeter to check the resistance value between the two leads of the glow plug. The resistance should be between 0.6-1.2 ohms. If it's outside this range, replace the glow plug.
