The role of the wind heating parking heater in a car is to provide heat inside the car, melt ice, snow, or frost on the windows, and have it to clearly see the outside of the car. Below, we will introduce how to determine whether the air heating heater is malfunctioning and how to handle it.
1、 The air heater inside the car has several ventilation holes on the window, which transport the heated air into the car through the air outlet holes. Turn on the heater and point your hand towards the air outlet. If you can feel the air and it is hot, it indicates that the air heater is working properly.
2、 Turn off the radio or other devices and park the car in a quiet place to listen to the sound of your heater fan turning. If you don't hear the sound of the fan rotating or air flowing, it means your fan is broken, and the heater may also be broken. If you can feel the hot air from the ventilation port, but the hot air is not blowing out, it indicates that the motor of your air heater is broken.
3、 If you can feel the air moving or hear the fan rotating, it indicates that your fan is in good condition. But if the air is not hot, it may be that the air heater is broken, which requires replacing the heater.
4、 If you cannot hear the fan rotate or feel the air flow without any heat, it means that the entire air heater may be broken. You need to check the fuse box and replace any burnt out fuses.
The air heater can not only provide heat for the car interior, but also effectively improve the cold start performance of the car and the poor emissions of the cold car. Therefore, in case of any abnormal situation during use, it is necessary to timely and correctly determine whether there is a malfunction and the cause of the malfunction, in order to better protect your car.
