I can activate it via remote (new batt), it starts, fan comes on, I can hear the burner noise from the nsf arch then it stops.

any thoughts?

regards richard

time for a change if you are

Mine turned out to be a faulty FBH ECU. Have you got access to a tool to read the fault codes? Graham

dont have access to a fault code reader.

2009 .. unless you're VERY unlucky (jan 1st - Jan 12th registered) your car still under warranty. Get it into the dealer PDQ. Mine cost £1400 to fix... Graham

Only answer. They're very expensive parts, and no LR servicing bits inside, so it means a new one. Graham

As Graham says...

Just FYI - posted in Grahams FBH Fault thread (4th paragraph- 'In the first 2 cases...'):

There is nothing in the RAVE on repairing the FBH. I just posted most of the relevant info in the 'Have I got an FBH' thread in general.

Graham, here are the relevant tech docs in English. Don't be put off if it looks like a lot. It is a rather simple device. You just have to weed through the irrelevant info first.

From my past experience here is a list of most common FBH problems (though my experience is based on the older generation of FBH. Should be close to the same):
- bad glow plug (continuity test)
- bad thermal overload breaker (continuity test)
- improper fuel mixture (the mixture is metered by both the fuel pump (precise 'dosage-pump') and the combustion air pump).
- thermal overload due to bad coolant pump

In the first 2 cases the FBH will not even try to run whereas in the latter 2 it will start and shut down without producing any heat.

I'd also contact Webasto and ask who does their FBH repairs in the UK. Here on the mainland it's all Bosch Service Centers (amongst others).

Let me know if I can be of help if you do attempt the repair yourself.

BTW, the FBH function for the IIDTool is finished. We are confirming it in the coming days starting with my RR this evening (as I leave for the US on Sunday).

Car booked in for thursday, i'll let you know what happens.

Sounds same as mine,

Think it's a new ecu for FBH RANGE ROVER 04 TD6 FACE LIFTED TO 2012.
