Depending on the modification, the modules differ significantly in design and purpose. Hence, Webasto standard errors will also vary. Autonomy fault codes and explanations are listed below. Among buyers, gasoline versions of the interior air heater are most often in demand. The design solves the problem of overcooling the internal space and is distinguished by its versatility. Heaters often do not exceed a power of 1-2 kW. Long-distance drivers are in demand for more powerful 3 and 4 kW models operating on 24V and powered by diesel fuel.
Due to such a variety of modifications, many questions arise regarding their repair and maintenance. We will deal with this further.
Webasto malfunctions and their elimination
The main malfunctions include the following prerequisites:
- The heater does not start;
- Refusal to work;
- After starting, the heater stops.
Webasto does not start depending on the properties of the equipment, as well as the properties of the fuel. It is necessary to start from the fact that either there is nothing to set fire to, or there is nothing to burn, and in some cases it may be both.
Fuel of disgusting quality clogs the filter mesh of the fuel pump, resulting in a poor dose of it, and eventually a complete lack of supply. Also, bad fuel has a negative effect on the spark plug, which becomes very coked and stops heating to the appropriate temperature, and then becomes unusable.
We remove the Webasto error, a quick way without a computer and ELM!
This video shows how to diagnose it yourself, reset errors and blocking from the standard settings.

Using the PALFINGER SANY SRC550C short base crane as an example.
In case of failure, it is better to contact a service center for diagnostics with special software.
Webasto malfunctions on diesel engines are similar to those for cars with gasoline engines. On a diesel engine, Webasto may not start due to the fact that in most cases it is difficult to find diesel fuel of good quality, and the sulfur content is higher than normal, polluting the spark plug even more than gasoline. Accordingly, on a diesel engine it fails faster.
Also, with a diesel engine, Webasto does not start in cold weather due to thickening of the fuel, which may simply not reach the supply system into the combustion chamber through the pipeline. Because the fact that Webasto does not start in cold weather is a common problem on cars specifically with diesel engines.
Another problem with Webasto is that the fuel pipe is bent; because of this, fuel will also not be able to flow into the heater. And the most common reasons why Webasto may not work are: clogged fuel grid and unusable glow plug.
If Webasto does not turn on, then the prerequisite may be a control failure. And when Webasto starts up at first, then stalls after some time, it could also be an issue with the electronics. In these cases, you need to contact a service center, where the heater will be connected to a device with special software and diagnostics will be carried out.
Device Features
Design and characteristics of Binar engine preheaters
Before understanding Webasto error codes, you need to understand what kind of device it is, how it works and why it can fail. Having understood the principle of operation and studied the potential weaknesses of the preheater, it will be easier for the car owner to look for the cause of the Webasto failure, as well as find ways to solve the problem. Preheaters of the famous Webasto brand consist of:
- heat exchanger;
- combustion chambers;
- circulation pump;
- fuel priming pump;
- electronic control unit.
These are 5 main elements, the work of which is aimed at heating the engine before starting it. Due to preheating, it is possible to ensure minimal damage to the engine, which suffers very much from a cold start. The oil is not heated up; it remains extremely viscous due to the low ambient temperature. This results in increased friction between metal parts, chips are produced, and the correct geometry of the elements is disrupted. At first it is not noticeable, but each subsequent cold start has an even more destructive effect.
To keep the engine intact, as well as to avoid costly repairs, preheaters were developed. Among them, Webasto devices are especially popular. Their fuel priming pump begins to supply fuel from the car’s fuel tank to the combustion chamber of the heater in a certain amount. It ignites, which is due to the presence of a spiral spark plug in the Webasto design.
Inside the combustion chamber there is a heat exchanger element, which is washed by the cooling liquid. This heat exchanger, when connected to a vehicle heater, is connected to a small circle of the vehicle's cooling system. This is where the circulation pump comes into play, moving the coolant through the jacket of the automobile cooling system. This warms up the engine before starting it directly.
The electronic control unit, which is provided by the design of the preheater, connects directly to the car engine ECU, which allows you to control the operation of Webasto. The result of the operation of preheaters amazes many with its efficiency. In severe frosts, such an assistant in the car turns out to be indispensable. Some complain about the fact of fuel consumption, although in reality it is insignificant, plus it is still more profitable than constantly starting a cold engine, and then eliminating the consequences of frequent cold starts.
General signs of malfunction of Webasto engine liquid heaters
| Malfunction | Recommendations for elimination |
| There is no combustion after the first and restart, or combustion stops during operation. | Turn off the heater for a short time and then turn it on again. |
| The engine is overheating and the operation indicator is flashing. | Check the air duct for permeability, cool the heater, turn it off briefly, then turn it on again. |
| The heat limiter has tripped: overheating due to a coolant leak. | Fix the leak, add coolant to the level prescribed by the vehicle manufacturer, and press the heat limiter button. |
| The on-board voltage is too low for more than 20 seconds. | Charge the battery. Turn off the heater for a short time and then turn it on again. |
| The combustion air line or exhaust line is clogged. | Check the combustion air and exhaust pipes for leaks. |
If these measures do not resolve the malfunction, the heater must be sent to a Webasto service center.
Option No. 2
Why won't the hydronic heater start?
This is the most “inconvenient” option - you not only need to remove the glove box, but also find the required wire on the connector above the central computer block (CJB). You won't be able to pull out this connector, so warm up before starting work. The sequence is:
a.remove the glove box;
b. move the curtain to the side and up;
c.Locate the large connector above the Central Processing Unit (CJB);
In order for the connector to be in your hands, you need to pull it to the right until it is removed from the mount. For even greater convenience, I recommend removing the right (from the connector) part of the wiring from the clamp.
d.Find the W-Bus wire on the connector and connect to the W-Bus wire (wires under the arrows, connect to any) with a K-Line adapter;
— at the bottom left (according to the picture) it can be yellow (if Telestart is installed under the OD promotion) or blue-white (for cars with Telestart installed at the factory);
- on the top right, as a rule, there is a blue-white wire, between the orange-blue and blue-orange wires.
Webasto Thermo 50/90S/90ST/230/300/350
If a malfunction occurs, an electronic lock is activated and the heater issues a fault code. Check the fuses and plug connectors for their serviceability and tightness.
The blockage can be removed by restarting the heater or by briefly removing the blue 15 A fuse on the heater cable harness when the heater is on.
After installing the fuse, the heater turns on. If the blockage is not removed, you need to determine the cause of the malfunction.
Note! Wesasto heater blocking is a special operating mode. The blocking is activated if the self-diagnosis system detects a malfunction (one or more), further work with which may be unsafe, both for the heater itself and for the vehicle on which the heater is installed. The blocking itself is not a malfunction, but is a consequence of one or more malfunctions. Moreover, the cause of the malfunction may not be in the heater at all.
Webasto timer 1531
If the heater is equipped with a 1531 timer (with alarm), after an emergency lockout, the following error codes are displayed on the timer display.
| Code | Malfunction |
| F01 | There is no start. |
| F02 | Flame break (repeated more than 5 times). |
| F03 | Voltage drop below permissible or increase above permissible. |

Attention! Improper installation or repair of Webasto equipment may cause a fire or result in the release of toxic carbon monoxide. This could result in serious or fatal injuries.
Breakdowns
In case of any abnormal situation, it will show an error code (in numbers on the display or using a switch light). Abnormal operation of Webasto is most often caused by an oversight by the driver himself (for example, the fuel level in the tank dropped below the permissible level and the device did not start), but it happens that the signal is sent due to a serious malfunction.
Most often, Webasto stops working due to carbon deposits inside. Sensors may also fail.
A fairly common problem is the situation when it blows, but does not heat.
In this case, the circulation pump is most likely faulty. That is, the heater turns on, runs for several minutes and turns off due to overheating, because... liquid does not circulate in the cooling circuit. The problem is solved by replacing the pump.
The malfunction must be repaired only at a service center where workers have completed a special training course.
Operation of a faulty device is prohibited.
The Webasto autonomous heater is a very reliable device, but a breakdown can still happen. In most cases, failure occurs due to improper installation, improper operation or lack of maintenance.
Most often, the Webasto autonomous heater simply does not turn on in the event of a malfunction, however, in some malfunctions, abnormal operation of the device is simply observed.
The Webasto battery has the following typical faults:
- flame breaks;
- overheat;
- unstable operation (for example, difficulty starting).
In the event of a breakdown, the heater will indicate its malfunction by showing an error code (a table with codes is presented at the end of the article).
An inscription in the form of the letter F and two numbers will appear on the timer display (this is the error code).
If there is no timer and there is only a switch, then the switch light will give a certain signal (blink code). The light bulb will give 5 short signals and a number of long ones. The number of long beeps is an error code. If the error code is 0, then the light bulb will simply give 5 short signals.
Also, abnormal operation of the heater may be indicated by extraneous noise during operation of the device.
The car owner can only check the condition of the fuses on his own, as well as visually assess the condition of the heater.
Therefore, if visually all the fuses are intact and all the plugs are in place, then you must immediately contact a specialized service center
. To fully diagnose and read errors, you must have special Webasto Thermo Test software, as well as a special programmer and adapter plug. All this is available only in a specialized service center.
Self-repair may result in damage to the heater or vehicle!!!
Webasto Autonomy may show the following error codes:
Webasto is an indispensable thing in the modern world. Happy owners of such a device avoid serious problems in winter. But as soon as the system disappears, the question arises, why does Webasto not turn on? In the article we will try to analyze the possible causes of the breakdown, but first we will look at how to use the mechanism correctly so as not to experience further problems with the heater.
Webasto system in a car
Today it is difficult to find a car enthusiast who does not dream of integrating Webasto into his car. Webasto is an autonomous German-made one. A compact mechanism weighing 5 kg is installed inside the cooling circuit of the vehicle’s on-board network and fuel system. The main function of Webasto is to warm up the engine before starting the power unit. An autonomous heater pump drives antifreeze throughout the cooling network through the radiator. Essentially, the device is a small combustion chamber connected to the vehicle’s cooling system. Today the manufacturer is bringing to market two types of devices - Thermo Top Evo-4 and Thermo Top Evo-5
. They differ only in power.
Webasto is also connected to the standard interior heater and starts the fan. Thus, in the cold season, the driver does not need to wait for the engine to warm up. The motor reaches the required temperature with one press of the remote control button. The owner does not need to approach the car; Webasto can be launched from the apartment window. In addition, during a cold start, engine wear is equal to a mileage of 100 km
. The heater works autonomously, heating and starting the engine for a long time does not take up a large battery charge. The only obvious downside is that the battery life is reduced by a year. If we take this as a price for convenience and comfort, then changing the battery is not decisive.

Codes and interpretation of errors when diagnosing a Webasto heater
The Webasto heater is an extremely reliable unit, but, like any product, it can fail. There are a number of faults that can be diagnosed. It should be borne in mind that if a failure to turn on occurs several times in a row, the Webasto will be blocked and it will be possible to remove the blocking only in a car service center. If any breakdown occurs with the heater, the unit signals this by the appearance of an error code on the control panel. In a separate case, Webasto errors are indicated by flashes of the indicator lamp (blink code). All malfunctions that can occur with the Webasto heater can only be viewed using the special Webasto Thermo Test program. In addition to the software, you will need a special programmer with an adapter. This equipment is available at Land Rover service centers. You can find out that the Webasto heater is blocked by the complete lack of response to commands, as well as by clicks inside the heater when a start command is given. Below is a complete table of Webasto errors and their interpretation.

Instructions for using Webasto on diesel and gasoline
Everything is simple here - remove the glove box, find the Telestart unit installed in the OD, as a rule, it is glued with Velcro tape on the back of the air duct at the front passenger's feet. There are three wires connected to the Telestart unit - ground, power and W-Bus. The W-Bus is an orange wire. There are two connection options - with disabling Telestart (simply connect the K-Line adapter to the corresponding contacts of the block removed from Telestart, while the W-Bus bus corresponds to the K-Line bus), and without disconnecting (you will have to break the integrity of the cable braid, pierce them, or another way - it's up to you). Power and ground can be taken from the cigarette lighter (rear) or battery.
