Eberspacher wouldn't start

[benktnp]

Hi

I have a D5LC 2002 mod, that has worked for many years, with no problems, suddenly it wouldn't start.I delivered it to our local Vendor for diagnose. They said that it was the overheating sensor that was gone. I Changed it with a new one, without result. Since it was difficult to get parts for it, I bought a used one from a friend of mine, same type and model, that was overhauled. After mounting it start and the diesel pump was ticking but it wouldn't ignite. I thought the diesel had not reached the burner and restarted it five times, then it died. and was totally dead after that. Is there a way to reset it? Can anyone help me?

A 5.5 Kw heater in a T6? Bit of an overkill even for Norwegian climate!

These old heaters are a pain, after 20 years use it may well be that the ecu has failed. A lot of the old ecus start to suffer from dry solder joints especially where the terminal contacts are soldered to the pcb.
Quite honestly it is not worth throwing too much money at such an old heater if you cannot repair it yourself.
