I bought the car knowing that the auxiliary heater is broke. After changing the wiring mentioned in an earlier post the orange warning light came up on the dash when I started the engine still warm. In a weird way it didn’t happen on a cold start. Fuel consumption went up so I guess it was heating by burning diesel but it didn’t stop when it was suppose to.

I checked the service manual and user guide and the meaning of this light was not described anywhere. A quick way to loose the light and stop the heater from wasting fuel was to pull its plug on the right side (as you’re in the car) of the firewall. I had to pull out the red lever to the right and than I could pull the plug.

I am planning to replace the heater in the future.
