- Priming the diesel heater fuel lines
- setting the clock and timers
- Navigating the menu
- What you will see on the blue LCD screen and how to read the icons
- Using Hz mode
- Swapping between temperature and Hz mode
- How to pair/use the remote
- Heater startup and shutdown procedures

Thank you for going right to business. You didn't spend 5 minutes talking about yourself first. Great instructional video.
No worries, not so good with the rambling on video so just cut to the chase :)
Agreed
That comment made my day....lol
This was extremely helpful, thank you so much. We've just installed ours, and this was much easier to watch than trying to follow the manual!
You’re not wrong!
There's a manual?
@@3genac ours came with a manual but it was converted from Chinese to English and very had to follow.
This would be extremely helpful if you could tell how to change the elevation in meters.
Thank you so much 1st RUclips video that has my controller. I was completely lost with the Chinese instructions and now I am good. I was so pissed off I was just gonna junk the heater or give it away because I could not sell something that did not think work. You even had brief directions on the remote control which is also fantastic
Super useful instructions. The supplied instructions are useless. This video got me up and running. Brilliant 👏
Glad it helped, good to hear you got it going. They are great little heaters!
Thanks mate a life saver.
Now cosy and warm and drying out after the cyclone blew through
Cheers Dave
Great video, easy to follow. Thank you
Best Demo of this controller on the net! Thank you.
Wow, thanks!
Super informative and helped me out massively, thank you for posting this. I would have been lost as I have no manual for the one in my camper!
No problems! they are a good heater just most don't come with instructions.
Thanks for this .. About to install my blue controller diesel heater and this comprehensive input will definitely help
Good luck! hope this will help!
So glad I found this video. This controller really has some good capabilities. I never would have been able to figure it out by looking at the instructions. Your screen is so much brighter than mine. I will never remember, sadly, what buttons to push when “in the field.”
Thanks! Yeah I think it looks brighter in this video than it is in real life. I actually filmed it in my caravan which had a caravan cover on at the time so it was pretty dark in there. As you use the heater you'll get used to the controls and they are pretty easy to remember. If you have reception just come back and watch the vid until you get used to it.
I have everything written down and laminated on 4 a4 sheets of paper that stay in my van so i CANT FORGET lol..
Thanks buddy. Very, very helpful your explanation.
Thank you for your service
I'm thinking about upgrading to this controller. Thanks. I have this saved.
Thank you very much for this great instructional video
Thanks for watching. Glad it was helpful!
Great Job. Well presented and great knowledge, you know your stuff!!
I appreciate that! Thanks for wartching!
George from British Columbia Fantastic Tutorial Thank You
Many thanks! Fantastic that people are watching from all around the world.
Thanks. Great tutorial!
All good, thanks for watching!
Well done mate - thank you
Awesome video mate it really helped me set up my heater 👊🏻
Good stuff! glad it helped.
Thanks for that info was a bit lost trying to work it out using the manual supplied. Cheers mate
No problem 👍
all sorted now thanks, bloody awesum thanks
Thank you very much.
Thank you 👍🏻
Thank you very helpful 👍👨🏻🏭🇬🇧
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for a well done video!
Glad you liked it!
Great video, the instruction book is just confusing. Thank you so much !.
Thanks, very informative. Having watched this the Chinglish manual makes a bit of sense.
Cheers, Thanks for watching!
Excellent video 👍🏻
Thank you very much!
My aluminum 3" heat tube is a good hot dog & bun warmer too.
touch the left and right arrow at the same time to change between Celsius and Fahrenheit
Thanks🙏
Thank you! I set the 1 on and 2 etc thinking that that was how I could set a time for it to come on in my greenhouse and then off in the morning! No wonder it wouldn’t come on a couple days ago! How silly is that for thermostatically running?! Geez! And the thermostat is totally not reliable for ambient temperature! Grrr! I have 3 thermometers/stats and this always shows 2-4 *c higher! No way to calibrate it!
And now I now how to set to the hertz mode and pair the remote! 👍👍 such crazy instructions they sent with the units! 🤦🏻♀️ tonight is the test mode for it to heat my greenhouse as frost is coming on tonight! Cheers from Canada!
Hi Denise, yes you are right, the way the timer is setup is not intuitive at all and makes it very annoying for doing reputative timers (like i imagine you will be doing). Also agree with you about the temperature... I actually don't think it chases the temperature and it simply changes the hz and runs the fan/pump slower for a lower temperature. The actual heaters work great, but the timers and controllers can be a bit annoying. There is an aftermarket solution called "Afterburner" which some people say is good - I haven't personally tried this but it apparently removes all these niggly issues we find with the controller.
@@berko79 yes I’ve heard of the Afterburner LCD also! I wanted to see how it runs tonight on the lowest hertz setting and what temperature it holds at for maybe a month to decide if I should purchase one.
I tried the thermostat option a couple days ago and I found it shoots WAY over what I have it set at! The pump and heat kept coming before the heater finally dialled itself down! So frustrating when you want a set temperature for it to run at! Like +10-15* over shoot! Crazy!
So glad I now have it in manual mode to turn on with the remote tonight! 👍🤞
Thanks for responding!
Video came in handy.Thank you. Which would you currently see as the best controller availabe? Do you have an internal list of favorites with reasons?
I've only really tried the black (very common one) and this blue one. They are very similar in terms of feature and that is probably because they share the same controller board (inside the heater). Be careful though there are now knock off of the knock offs coming out with less features!
This is exactly what I needed, thank you Sir
Glad I could help, thanks for watching!
@@berko79 have you come accross a no entry symbol on the blue controller, im really struggling here
@@alandall6630 I haven't personally but I remember someone commenting on one of my videos that it means it is set to 24v instead of 12v. You'll need to change it in the advanced set-up
Does anyone know fi this one actually adjusts the mixture for altitude or if it just pointlessly shows you the altitude but doesnt use it?
Thx
Thanks for the tutorial , on the timing mode these lLCD controllers only work for a max time of 99mins and 95sec which is a complete waste of time, get the older model they work great.
I have a 3000 watt heater with this blue controller I'm wondering what the maximum and minimum Hertz should be and the RPM I'm wondering if I messed up the settings
Yep very helpful, unfortunately after 1 use it seems I need to replace the glow plug on mine!
I have a blue controller, bought the remote. But the "signal" icon on my controller isn't turned on. I'm curious isbthat a feature that has to be activated or is it that my controller does not have remote control ability?
Good clear instructions. Any idea how to un-pair the remote? I gave my remote to my nextdoor neighbor and now when she turns on her heater, mine turns on too. Unplugging the power doesn't work.
oh wow... maybe try pairing on the controller without the remote around? I dont know, I'll have a play next time i'm in the van and see if i can work it out.
I have a 2kw heater
What would the settings be for fan speed fuel pump glow plug and other settings when you enter your password number
Is there a way to change screen brightness?
I have this exact blue looking model, and i cannot go into hertz mode. No combination dodnt work. I could set it to alpine mode but it wont show me the height. Im at 430 meters over sea so any advice?
Mine looks IDENTICAL, but it's red lol. Been researching farrrr too long I need to get it fitted this next week on the garage workshop! Thanks for the tips.
I presume the red is just the same, oh and same red remote which I got off amazon, the heater came with the old slider style button only.
Should work like this one i believe. Just make sure your new controller plugs into the same plug - it should be fine if it does. I've heard of some people having to change the board on the heater too.
just remembered we had a person comment on this video saying they had a red one which worked the same way :)
@@berko79 Yeah, it didn't work, got HFA mode fine, and "for pairing" fine, but no go. Been told on a group for CDH's that they're different comms to the default board.
I have the Blue Diesel Heater LCD Controller but the Remote is Black, not Red. Will this make any difference to your tutorial on operating instructions? I might add, great tutorial!
The actual remote instructions might be slightly different. I think some of them have a few more features (like current ambient temperature on the remote). I dont believe the instructions for the actual hardwired controller would be different.
Does the ambient temperature only get detected on the blue controller or did it get detected on the red remote too?
I've seen others could get it up on their remote but wasnt able to. Might depend which remote you have.
Thank you for the video! I have a question regarding the temp setting. I set the desired temp to 50F and the heater reached that temp in just a few minutes. From there, the heater dropped to a very low setting (6W) and ran heat on low. After 45 minutes, however, the van is now 60F, 10 degrees higher than the temp I set and the pump has been pumping the entire time. QUESTIONS: Does the unit controller know when to turn off when it's reached desired temp and does the fuel pump stay on endlessly?
Unfortunately it never switches itself fully off. I'm assuming this is to save the continual startup routine. It does slow itself (fan and pump) right down but if this is still too much on the minimum setting to stay under the requested temperature the area will heat up and be above the desired temp. In our Caravan/RV i've had to leave the windows open some nights to help regulate the temp as the unit cannot to it itself as the minimum is still too much.
@@berko79 Thank you for the thorough response! I also read somewhere else that turning the Hz or degrees down as low as possible helps some too. Looks like I'll be opening a window! Without the heater, my problem was being too cold, now it's being too warm! Oh well! I'm still very happy with my heater so far.
they keep ticking over so the heat does keep increasing slowly even though you have reached your required temp. Some people adjust the hertz to keep the pump supplying a minimal amount of fuel to help with the control of the temp.
Manual priming stopped when it was finished . It did pour out some black smoke upon start up but it cleared. Problem now is getting into FT and Fº
Oh missed this one before your other comment. Yeah black smoke is probably because you primed a bit long. Don't think it's possible on these controllers to change them to imperial. I know some other types do
Thanks for the video. When manually priming how do you know when to stop. I assume this is done ont he first start up only. Is that right?
It's best to watch the lines and stop when you see the fuel get close to the heater
Tks for the great video 🙏🏼💙. Do you have a user manual of this model?
There is a PDF user manual for this over on facebook. You might need to join the group to access it (The Chinese Diesel Heater Community). Its not so easy to follow, which is why i made this vid. Anyway you can find it here: facebook.com/groups/419122475590648/permalink/833184530851105
@@berko79 wow! Tks :)
Thanks for this video, Ive got a 2 kw unit heating my semi detached house downstairs, im still struggling to get to grips with changing from manual to auto modes although on Manual it is maintaining a nice 21 degrees C in m y kitchen and living room with the doors open its running at 3.1 Hz at full chat and as low as 1.0 hz on low speed, only fired it up for the first time yesterday 20 th of Dec 2022, so im still learning, what is most noticeable is the reduction in condensation compared to runing the gas boiler it seems to be drying the air out and today we can see out of the windows. we are extracting the air from the kitchen and pumping the warm air into the living room with the heater mounted on the outside wall in a custom built box 1 meter wide.
I think this is going to reduce our energy bhills to arouind £40.00 gbp per week from £60.000 gbp per week at the very least at first I didnt think the 2 kw would be enough to heat our 23 foot x 15 foot x 7ft ceiling height downstairs area but its doing a vary good job of it if I run it at full speed for an hour in the morning and turn it down low for the rest of the day.
once again thanks for this I must have watched it 10 times and Im popping back occassionally to see it again.
wow, nice. I love hearing all the different uses for these heaters. I've always wondered how they would go heating up larger spaces. Great to hear you have had success.
@@berko79 ive done some calculations now after 3 days of running for 8 hours a day with the pump set at 1.7hz pump speed on a 2kw heater, in the latest cold snap we were using £12.00 a day on a British gas pre-pay meter with no debt on it. Now since we have been using the heater if I include a litre of diesel a day we are using £4.00 per day on gas and diesel for all day heating. £28 a week or over £80 a week on gas alone. I reckon these heaters could save lives this winter, such a pity no one who helps people in fuel poverty hasnt realised their real life potential, id even give up some spare time to fit them for people. weve even bought another one a 5kw for the caravan but it is heating outside air to maintain 20 degrees C it needs to run at 2.0Hz still much cheaper than running a 3kw electric covector heater or buying gas to run the heating in the caravan. have to start on 5Hz for about half an hour as the outside air is below freezing and it takes longer for the heat exchanger to get up to temperature. ive fitted 2 silencers to this one as it was quite noisey with just one alone. some of the kits seem to come with two silencers its well worth fitting both as it gets the exhaust noise down below 50db. it was 68db with just one silencer at 5.5Hz.
Great video. Subbed.
Are these new blue and red remotes interchangeable with the older Chinese diesel heaters??? I have the older style LCD with old remote with padlock signs. Can I just swap these out with the new version ???
Thank you friends!!! ✌️✌️✌️
Sincere regards,
Scott. ✌️🙏✌️
Thanks for the comment/Sub. That's a good idea - i haven't even checked if the red remote works with the old controller. Let me give that a go and I'll get back to you.
I just tried this and it does not work. The old controller just sits on HFA and cannot connect. So to do this you will have to swap the remote and the controller. I've got a video on swapping both the controller and the remote... its pretty straight forward.
@@berko79
Hey friend.
Sorry for the misunderstanding. That is kind of what I was meaning. Changing both remote and controller and be able to use the same ECU. I have the newer black ECU and I was wondering if I had to change all 3 or buy all 3 together incase one or the other would not work with the ECU that I have? I can see that the controller and remote works with your current ECU. Can you confirm if it is the newer black style circuit board as it would save me a little money not buying an ECU full kit. My controller has the low light problem so a new one is in order.
Thank you kindly for taking the time to do this for me and us 👍💪💪
Sincere regards,
Scott. ✌️🙏✌️
Hi Scott, Oh i see, I know there are a few versions of the black controller. I also know the one which has 3 fan blades on the LCD (instead of 5/6) might have issues with the swap. If yours is like my black controller (note the number of blades on the fan icon) which you can see here, i think you'll be ok to swap. ruclips.net/video/nmsal0igSaM/видео.html
Do you know if there is a manual available? There’s many utube videos but no one knows what all the functions are?
Hi Chris, some of them came with Manuals but they are almost completely useless. Badly translated and not covering anything which is why these videos become so popular.
What are the differences between this controller and the black controller, and is the newer one the blue version? I'm trying to decide which version of heater to buy but there are so many different variants its very confusing. Thanks
There is not a whole lot feature wise. The black one does have issues with the screen fading as it stays on permanently. There are also inferior copies of the black one which is why id recommend the blue one. I am not sure if they are making featureless versions of the blue one. The easiest way to tell on the black one is the number of blades on the fan icon - the inferior one has 3 if i recall correctly.
Hi, I know how to turn on the pump, but it only works like 1 in 100 times I press the setting buttom and the down arrow key together... more people have this problem? Or does this mean I still have enough diesel in it?
Yeah it can be a pain to get the prime to trigger.... you just have to keep trying and eventually the priming routine will start
Does it have low voltage protection in case battery charge goes low so heater will automatically turn off?
I believe its 10v. So it will likely ruin your battery before it turns off. On the other hand when running it uses very littler current so it might not be an issue. The initial startup uses quite a bit (10-15amps)
How do you change the elevation setting ? Please !
Is possible to turn on just the fan, without the burner?
I dont believe so, even if you unplug the pump it will stop with an error. Something like the afterburner controller might be able to do it
Bought one of these and the display doesn’t let you set a time or use the timer on of off, I can select manual and automatic, but I really need to be able to set the time and have it come on and off, setting option doesn’t work for me? Any help?
For what is the Sign in the Left up Corner?
Great video. Any idea how I get my remote to show English ? Mine is all in Chinese. The main controller is fine, but the red remote is in Chinese. Thanks for any help
Oh yeah I should have included that in the video too. You just hold down the OK button to switch to English.
@@berko79 thanks so much!!
Awesome that’s why I came to my remote was in Chinese with no instructions for English thank you!
Anyone know how to change it from C to F? Thanks!!
Hi Berko,thanks for your very informative video on the blue controller. However, I can't get mine to even start priming the fuel pump. Any suggestions why this is happening and how to fix this issue. Cheers.
sometimes they take a few tries to get the prime to click on. I actually had to do multiple takes of the video to get it to prime. Have you tried a few times? Any error codes?
@@berko79 Hello again and thank you for your reply . I have tried priming it a couple of times and no errors. However, I did checked the voltage to the pump and it's around 4.9 volts,is this correct ? cheers .
@@howardross-gilder8331 i think they are low voltage so 4.9v sounds right. Can you hear the pump clicking? If so it might just be a airleak in your lines. I've heard of some people who have had dud pumps from new too
@@berko79 Hello again. I have tried priming the fuel pump multiple times without any joy and now I'm getting error E 07 coming up. Any more suggestions cheers.
Hmmm just looked up E07 and it seems its a wiring issue between the actual body of the heater and the controller. Might be worth checking wires or maybe they have sent the wrong controller to you?
Hi, I have the same unit and in Automatic, when I set the desired temperature, the heater won't stop when it reaches the temperature? The unit is in the room (i guess it is the thermostat) but what can I do ?
I had mine set to 17 degrees cel, it never stop running, even at 19 degrees cel. I does not stop running once the set temperature is reached, the pump ran the whole time, unless I pressed the power button to turn it off!
I do not know what version this blue panel is, there must be at least 3, because I can not get into many setting or the advanced setting, the option never showed up.. It looks like yours.
Hi there, I got my heater installed a couple weeks ago, worked fine for a week then it started turning off after a few minutes of running. Red controller kept cycling between extinguished, overheating and failed start with the blue controller saying E10. Left it off for a couple days as that's what I've seen fixes the problem but now it's doing it again. I'm also having trouble turning on the priming setting. I've got no Idea how to fix this as this is not my forte so any help would be appreciated.
E10 is a fuel delivery error. I'd double check your lines have no leaks. Otherwise i'm not sure if your heater had the hard nylon fuel line or if it had the kind of soft hose. If its the soft stuff they are known to be pretty bad at not allowing the fuel to be delivered properly and it might be worth swapping to the harder line stuff. In regards to priming - some controllers do not come with priming functions and some that do are a real pain to get it to trigger. I sometimes have to push the 2 buttons ever so slightly apart (like the settings button gets pushed a millisecond before the right arrow).
I have primed ok .but when I press start it will start when stop in 3 seconds any thing to help thanks
_The timers are for on and off per timer set with the clock. It's just like the black controllers, with no count down timer. If you notice there's 1 on, then push again and you'll see 1 off mean start time and end time. Same with 2. Once you set the times it will always be set, all you have to do is turn on the timer and let it go back by itself. SN -1 or 2 are for the different fans magnets from my understandings. Hope this helps?_
Yeah that's how my black controller works.... however this one seems to work as I explained in the video.... as in a countdown. You can see i set it to 00:01 and it started one minute after i set it. Thanks for the update on the SN-1/2 I had no idea on that one!
@@berko79 no problem but I pretty sure I saw 2 on and 2 off but it’s cool!
Not mine is count down timer doesn't work half the time even that way new black and new blue almost the same
Hello, i tried to pair the remote with the thermostat unit (the gold one) and nothing seems to work it just wont pair so am i doing something wrong or is the remote dead (doesnt display the menu, just says: wait for pairing and turns off) also the thermostat displays HFA normally but it doesnt detect the remote.
Yes you are doing it correctly. I've had a few people messaging with similar issues so i think maybe they are including incompatible remotes or something. I dont think anyone has had any success pairing them.
When the heater is turned off will the display turn off also if yes after how. Long or. It just stays on whole time
yeah this is one of the downsides of these heaters is it stays on. I simply unplug the screen after the shutdown procedure finishes. I know some other people put a switch on the power line
Gidday....I just bought one of these heaters and when you apply power to the LCD controller it lights up, but has a 'frozen' screen and I can't get the screen to chnage no matter what buttons I push it just does not want to activate. Hope you can help .
My neighbour has one they are really efficient
Yeah they are very cheap to buy and do produce a lot of heat. RV owners are into them but I'm actually surprised more of the off-grid/tiny house community aren't into them.
And what if you don’t want the timer to shut off that you wanna be able to control that like safer example if you’re using it in a greenhouse I don’t want the heater to go out whenever I want to be able to control when to put it on and off how then do you have the settings in that situation?
Is it necessary to put the timer or can you just have the unit running until you manually turn it off?
Yeah you can manually turn it off. I just manually start and stop mine. Very rarely use the timer.
Is there ANY controller that will turn on these heaters on a specific time every day? Without fiddling with the controller every day.
Yes, now there is an aftermarket controller for these heaters that completely kicks ass. It's called the After-burner, and it's made by a guy in Australia. It can control 20 something different parameters, including fuel/air ratio, Celsius /Fahrenheit, fuel remaining, etc, etc, etc.
Retail is around $70.00 (I believe) but I'm told it's totally worth it.
hi mate--- how do you know when the pump is finished priming? cheers for video
Hey mate, I actually got under the van and watched the fuel get pushed through the clear line. Just quickly jumped back in and turned it off as it reached the heater.
@berko79 yes i figured it out don't same thing, mine is same display unit, but to prime mine its holding left and right arrows at same time, took ages to work out as instructions are rubbish..lol, cheers mate
What are the batteries in the remote please?
AAA if your remote looks like this. If its the smaller flat one without the screen i believe its a A27
You have minimum pump frequency set to 1,2 (factory settings screen). Can you go to this while heating? Mine go to 1,7Hz regardless what is set as factory limit
Yeah I can go down to 1.2 when heating. Weird they are all set up differently.
Partially solved. The controller can't select limit values when Hertz span is too big for it. When I set 1,2 - 3,3 span, then can use whole range. When go higher to 4,4, selectable lower value is 1,7.
How do I change from celsius to fahrenheit ?
My model you cant. You can try pushing the two arrows together as I've seen something similar works for the red controller but as far as i know its not possible with this one.
What does the parameter with the top icon mountain ?
This is something to do with altitude, not sure it actually does anything other than letting you know it has an idea of your altitude (although not very accurate)
Hey, i have this blue controller but o cannot acces the settings for khz like you and when i cycle through the OK button it dont show altitude and max celcius is 210c at any settings from h4 h5 and h6. So it wont get any hotter and i cannot adjust rpm or any stuff like you do. Are there other button combination? Maybe 3 buttons? To prime mine its arrow left and right.
hmm that sounds really odd - maybe some of the buttons on your controller are not working properly? Im not across any other combinations or if there are maybe other variations of this blue controller which have less features so i'd suspect maybe your controller is faulty.
@@berko79 supposedly there are copis of copis of these controller. And i have the one wich doesnt have a back door seeting. Its what people say. All button works but the combo for going into khz and such doestnt
@@RimjobHimself oh right, i know the black controller has a copy with hardly any of the features. That one you can tell because it only has 3 fan blades on the fan icon on the screen. The worst bit about those ones is you cant just swap the controller you also need the board to be replaced in the heater.
@@berko79 aha, well its works so ill guess its ok. I can only reach 210 celcius but i thought it was gonna create more heat than it does. I can rin a 3300watts electric fan and that heats up the garage kinda fast but this is taking forever compared... Ill mount it closer to where i will work so ill guess it will be better with a better placement. Sucks yes.. and yeah it has 3 blades on the controller
fan speed 1&2 it doubles the fan speed
I was hoping with this new design they would have done the obvious and changed the timers for alarms, so you could set it to come at say 7am... but no, I cant see how this is an upgrade over the old screens features. Problem is trying to find an 'old' controller with on and off times
Even the old style controllers didnt do that. It so crazy how they program them to work where most people want a timer with an on time and an off time. I think afterburner is an option but it costs as much as the heater. I'd still like to get my hands on one and have a look at what it has to offer.
Does anyone know how to decrease the fan speed? Its stucked on MAX. please. Thank you
It seems the red one does not have the priming mode.
hmm, thats a bit odd I use the priming mode quite often. Sometimes the priming mode is tricky to get into and by that i mean pressing the buttons at the same time sometimes is really difficult, and even for this video i had to do a few takes before i got it.
received mine yesterday with same controller. Tried many many times to have the pump primed as you said. never worked. Finally, I push the on button. first time was not working, the pump started but stopped with error code. tried a second time and it worked. my remote is black.
By turning it on you basically did the same thing as priming it but with the glow plug on. No issues at all. Your controller might look the same but there are some slightly different with the features. Anyway if it's working it should be all good 👍
@@berko79 Tks, you are right, finally found how to prime on mine by pushing both right and left (up and down) button.
I have the blue controller and a black remote and hfa does not come up. Cannot pair these together at all. Please help! Note they were purchased new and came together.
Did you try the remote - its possible they are already paired. As you can see in this video once they are paired you cannot bring up the HFA.
I have a question if anyone can help?? I have a 8kw heater running the blue controller just like the one in the video. I have my minimum pump speed set to 1.2hz but during normal running i can only adjust the pump down to 1.9hz. Does anyone know why i cant go lower than the 1.9hz??
I've got same problem. Did you find the solution? Thanks
No i never figured it out
i have a red controller that looks like the black one but works like the blue one
Does this controller have the 1688 menu ?
Sure does, you can see me go through and check it in this video: ruclips.net/video/Tq16JlorTAk/видео.html at about 3 mins 40 secs
My 5th video ona subject of pairing remote and still no luck because every single video has the remote already paired. .
If the screen goes dark how do I get it to come back on, anybody know how I would greatly appreciate any help.
Dont you just push any button to make it lighter? Or do you mean its gone dark permanently?
how to do you change to Fahrenheit?
Pretty sure this doesnt work on every controller but pushing the arrows together at the same time seems to change it to Fahreheit on some controllers. The ones I have do no support this and the only option is Celsius.
Hi. Where does the controller's 3 pin connector go to?
Directly into the 3 pin plug which comes out of the heater.
My heater (motherboard) comes with 9 slot/7 pin square connector... not a good fit for the controller's 3 pin triangular plug. I suppose the 3 pin connector may be a part of the extension loom, but not in my case. I now ordered a set of motherboard, wired and remote controllers, maybe this setup will finally work. What a mess 🤦♂️
Is the heater supposed to shut of When it reaches a temp it chasing
No it will just slow down... It never switches off unless you turn it off. It's a bit weird but maybe to save on too many start ups which use a lot of current?
@@berko79 cool thanks a lot. Very helpful
So it is believed that it is thermostat regulated, but does not stop blowing heat. Does it ever exceed the temperature it's set at?
Yes it can, they are not great at regulating temp. Also a good reason not to just buy the biggest one. In lots of smaller spaces a 2kw version is a better option.
Hi there , I have the same unit as you do, but when I plug my heater in. It doesn’t show the time ? And I can’t find the option to set the time? And the instructions that came with it are useless. I also can’t pair my mini controller with it either. Can you help me?
Can you confirm how many blades (light up on the screen) on the fan on the controller. I know they are now being produced with 3 blade icons. These controllers have limited functions (no timers and lots of the menus removed)
@@berko79 hi there mine has three blades.
@@richwhite8592 yeah unfortunately that's why you are seeing less features than mine. It won't do the timers or have the priming functions from memory.
@@berko79 I am able to prime it .
do you know how to change the language from chinese to english on the remote control? I am not sure what happened but somehow it switched to chinese after years of use.
press and hold ok for about 10 secs. once you let go it should go back to english
Thanks back to english!!@@berko79
I followed the instructions but can't get the remote to pair
it might be paired already? have you confirmed its got a battery in the remote? Like it lights up ok I assume
Do you know how to switch the remote from C to F???
Mine can't do F but i have seen some new ones can do it by pushing the down and up arrows together. So maybe try that?
@@berko79 I have the black remote, I tried that. That switches it from auto to manual....or reading temp in Hrz to ambient temp. I got the display switched (I have the blue one) no problem. Ugh. We tried for hours to figure it out.
