- Chinese Diesel Heater Controller Setup
In this third and final video on the Chinese Diesel Heater install I show you how to program and use the LCD Electronic Controller. Then discuss and demonstrate some of the helpful functions.
Thought I would make a video so you could see how I installed one of these heaters in our pickup canopy. This is how I chose to install the heater and this video is for entertainment purposes only. I'm not a professional installer. You will need do your own research to see if this is an option for you. Consult the diesel heater owner's manual and a professional installer if your in need of guidance with an installation.
Thank you to everyone who watches my videos I appreciate your support!

Great video! Explained exactly what I needed to know. The instructions I received from my unit were completely worthless had I followed them I would've wire the unit up incorrectly. Your controller is exactly the controller I have which made this video great finished my install watched your video and it fired up first time got rid of that 30 year old propane furnace👍👍👍
Glad my video helped with your install. Pass it on to others and have a great day.
Got mine set up and working great in the truck camper. Keeping the old propane furnace in place as an emergency backup. It will run without any power.
Beezer Twelve Washingbeard, Glad to hear your heater is working great. always good to have a backup heat source. Thank you for watching. Please subscribe, give me a thumbs up on the video, and let others know about our channel. Check out our other videos too. Have a great week.
@Tony Bailes I've got two heaters, each has a completely different display. The one like you see in the thumbnail with the heater graphic always shows info even if it's off. The backlight will dim until you press a button then it goes bright, but it's still visible at all times. The other type is just numerical digits and goes dark after it shuts down.
@Tony Bailes next to nothing in terms of battery usage to power only the display head unit. If you're using the heater in your shop, it's advised to power it off a car battery and use a battery maintainer/trickle charger.
Absolutely PERFECT break down of the settings!! Thank you very much, really appreciate you taking the time to pass on your knowledge!! 😎👍
Thank you for watching my video. Please subscribe, give me a thumbs up and let others know about our channel. Check out our other videos and have a great day.
I'm giving you 6 stars instead of 5 for this better than excellent video. Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together. Explorer 867 = Hero of the Day!!!!!
Tom Hawes, Glad this video helped you out. Please subscribe, watch our other videos, and let others know about our channel. Have a great week.
With all the features on the controller and have a remote control, you're set to go. This is a very nice set-up. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Bob and Debbie, thank you for watching our Diesel Heater videos. We're looking forward to spring here in Oregon but in the meantime we will be toasty warm in the camper canopy. Have a great day you two.
Until the solder connection on the wire pulls loose from the circuit board in that LCD Controller! Then you cannot get the heater unit to start up! I wish someone would tell if it's possible to jump a couple of the wires that run to these controllers to BYPASS the controller just to get the heater up & running if you are in a (situation) where you accidentally pulled the NOT STRESS RELIEF wires out of the controller! PS: I commented elsewhere a recommendation that when you first get your heater you need to pump some hot glue or RTV Gasket sealer up into the little hole where the wires enter the plastic LCD controller box to help stress relief the wire from being pulled out.
Brilliant, thank you, I couldn’t make head or tail of the manual instructions, but you explained it simply and clearly. Very appreciative of your video!
Hi Journey off the grid, thank you for your comment. Please give me a thumbs up, subscribe, let others know about our channel, and check out our other videos. Have a great week.
Thanks - best explanation I've found yet, clearest, and didn't just rush through it. I really appreciate it. My manual is poorly written and in such tiny print that I can hardly make it out despite reading glasses AND magnifying glass.
Thank you for watching my video on the diesel heater controller, glad it helped you out. Please watch our other videos and let others know about our channel. Subscribe, give me a thumbs up and have a great day
Seems like just about anyone should be able to install and run this unit simply by watching your 3 vids. Very nice tutorial!
Yes I think so. It's not hard to install, just takes some skill, tools and time. Thank you for watching our channel and leaving your comment.
Thanks for the help for my first start of my cheap Chinese heater. Your Instructions were clear and not ambigious. Started on first try.
Hi Guy Reece, nice to hear the video helped you out. Enjoy your diesel heater. Please subscribe, give me a thumbs up, let others know about our channel and check out our other videos. Have a great day.
Great timing finding this video. Finished installing my heater in my van conversion. A bit early for the cold weather but its in and working. Thanks for the talk through of the control panel. 🖖
Hi Peter, it's good that you got your diesel heater installed before you need to heat with it. This gives you time to work out any problems with the heater. Please give me a thumbs up, let others know about our channel, check out our other videos and have a great day.
Amazing tutorial! Had mine on hertz for over and year and always wondered a way to set it to the temperature!
Mat J, yes easy to switch from Hz to Celsius. Glad my video helped. Please subscribe, give me a thumbs up, check out our other videos and have a great weekend.
Thanks for doing this video. I've just bought one to put in my shed in the UK and it's very informative.
Hi Dan, I'm sure you will like your heater. I like mine, have been using it for more than a year now. Please give me a thumbs up, subscribe and let others on your social media know about my channel. Have a great week.
Helped me put a lot here in anchorage,ak staying in my van. The heater is still doing great. Day 8 and still have the same lcd from HappiBuy
That's great. Stay safe
This is amazing! I like that you can actually set a timer, which could be really handy. I also like that the controller is so easy to read. Really impressed with this.
Yes! This is a nice controller, easy to operate and very easy to program. For Helen and I we probably wont use the timer function but the setup for it is the same as setting up the clock function. Take care.
@@explorer867
I have a different controller on my heater. Do you have a source for this controller?
I have trouble programming mine. It's a 19 universal digital panel, is what's on instructions paper.
This one looks much better.
Can someone explain how to use the timer and what the lock is for
@@lynlusse4542 did you figure out what the lock is for? Mine doesn't go below 1.6hz
@@antoniobaez6282 mine too but you can switch to thermostat mode
Thank you. I have looked at a number of these videos on this subject and this is the clearest. I make the assumption that once primed, the system is then simply on/ off.
Once primed your ready to run heater provided you installed heater properly. Please subscribe, give me a thumbs up, check out my other videos and let others know about our channel. Have a great day.
Thank you so much for this very clearly explained video, It is now my heater controller "Go-To" reference, Much appreciated.

I am all set for an install. Thank you for sharing. 🤗
You are most welcome.🤠
interesting set up, I am going to have to go back and watch the other 2 videos on this.
Were very happy thus far with the Diesel heater. With this control it makes management of the heater very easy. Thank you for your comment and for watching our channel.
Finally. Thank you for taking the time to explain the functions.

Thank You
Now I know how my heater should operate 👍
Thank you for your comment. Hope the heaters working out for you.
Thank you so much! Way easier than tying to decipher the instructions that came with it.

Wow very neat and definitely handy. Looks like a great way to go. I like that you can set the timer very cool. Thanks for sharing I appreciate your time.
Best wishes
Yes, this electronic controller is very nice for sure. The heater works perfectly. Thank you for watching our video and leaving your comments. Have a great day
Hi, Thank you for all your info and work that goes into making these video's. I was getting a low voltage warning E-01 and the heater would then shut down. It wasn't the batteries for they were at 13.2v . Come to find out it was the fuse and after changing it the unit worked just fine.
Peter Bowden, I'm glad my video helped you out. Please subscribe, give me a thumbs up, let others know about our channel and check out our other videos. Have a great weekend
Thank god for you 867.... i just installed a 2kw heater and i found the instruction Manual baffling .... i now see the light..bless you fella...
Your welcome my friend. These little heaters are nice to have in the cold weather.
thanks for explaining the Hz setting, just what i was looking for.
Your welcome. Stay warm this winter.
Very good tutorial, love your channel. Can't wait to get one now. Have a great day and thank you.
Your welcome. Thank you for watching our channel. And for leaving me a comment.
Thanks for this!! We just bought a van with this heater already installed, this was incredibly helpful to figure out the controller!
Glad video helped. Please Like, Subscribe, Ring the bell and let others know about our channel on your social media. Have a great day 🤠
Desiree, make sure you give the heater a look over making sure whoever did the install did so in a safe manner. One more safety, make sure your van has a carbon monoxide detector installed per manufacturer spec's. Enjoy you van 🤠
Absolutely great tutorial for these heaters. Thank you very much. Ohh yes, a 5kw will heat my 34ft Skoolie toasty in 1.0 hrs on a 32'F day. When its about 70'inside, I turn to low and it holds 70+'F no problem.
I am always happy to hear my video helps people. I have one of the 5kw diesel heaters in my camper canopy on the old 96er my 1996 Ford 4x4 pickup and one in my converted cargo trailer. Both heaters have worked flawlessly. You can check out the video I just uploaded on my converted cargo trailer and the videos detailing the install in my pickup canopy on RUclips. Please give me a thumbs up, subscribe, let others know about our channel on your social media, and ring the bell. Have a great week.
Thank you very well explained. Even though my controller is different the modes are alot alike and the way to tell which is which on the Temps was very helpful. Knowledge gained thank you.

Dude, I'm standing here in 0 degrees trying to get the Chinese diesel heater to work using the pigeon English manual...resorted to YT and man, you saved the day, I now know how the controller works as they'd printed the button stickers wrong.
Thanks and great vudeo

Hello Oregon friends. Thanks for doing these reviews, I really appreciate them. This heater would be overkill in my Honda Element in the lower 48, but, if I was camping in the mountains of BC or Alaska it would be perfect. Cheers!

Ok, thanks,, from deep cold north florida temps. The info you gave was put in a way i could comprehend. I learned from you about the temp degree setting differences, what to look for, the tiny degree indicator indicating thermostat temp verses the larger degree marker indicating target temperature .

I've been using this 5000 for the better part of a year with no problems. We travel off pavement alot of the time, so lots of dust. To remedy this dust issue causing problems I installed a combustion air intake filter. Enjoy your day

If i may ask, my heater dose not go all the way to the red bar, it stops at the yellow which is not alot of heat. Do you know why that is? Thanks again
@@hashimosman6519 Check you fuel delivery lines to make sure there's no air in them. Make sure your inline fuel filter is clean and that your running good clean diesel. Make sure your running the heater with a fully charged battery.

Great vid, thank you. I'd like to see how to program it to come on automatically, but I think that's fairly straightforward. What I'm not sure about is how you can set the target temperature when also setting it to come on automatically. It would be nice to return to a warm van after a walk, but not a sauna!
Yes, programing the timer is very similar to programing any electronic clock timer. Hikerdok, I'm not sure about timer and temp working together as we don't use the timer feature. If you work that out do let us know here by leaving a comment. I'm sure there are others that would benefit from that bit of wisdom. Have a great weekend
