Very strange if it’s not starting but no codes. I’m assuming your reading the codes with the wtt software and lead to a pc? Maybe try starting it and video the status screen on the wtt software, would have a better idea when it’s shutting down then and for what reason.

I'll try again in the morning, but it starts the starting cycle and I can hear combustion happening (with smoke), then as it seems to accelerate, it then enters a cooling cycle and stops.

Maybe tomorrow I'll be more diligent and look for a code.

Sounds like it’s doing the “02h” fault, which I think is just a general fail to start (normally because of carbon build up) or it’s a overheat fault which will probably be a bad sensor if it’s happening so soon. If your reading the faults with a iid you won’t always see everything that’s stored in the heater that you will with the wtt software, well that’s my experience anyway.

Yes, tomorrow if hairdryer and persistence day.

Let's hope I can get it started long enough to change the CO2 level

Any joy on this? Would be nice to understand if you were successful in tracing your fault?

Yes, I found that the power wire had a break in it. So I ran a fresh power lead to the pump from the FBH - down the chassis rails, to the pump. The pump then worked fine.

I had some other issues with the FBJ and you can see a film I made about it here which also shows the new wire I fitted.

It's the blue wire you can see in this YouTube thumbnail above.

Great footage and very helpful. Certainly gives me something to start with.

My 88h fault is intermittent however, in that some days it appears to run, and others not.

First port of call was to replace the FBH pump with a second hand one. It flashed up and ran straight away with a clean burn (ruling out the issue you had with mismatched parts). Few days later it begins to be intermittent again. WTT diognostics last night states 88h again.

Interestingly it ran quite well after I initially changed the pump out. Can’t help but think I may have some minor blockage in the suction line from the tank and me fiddling around wit the pump may have helped the restriction. I might see if a blow of an air gun (low pressure) into the fuel tank might remove anything that might have become lodged in that line.

As the FBH is reporting an error with the pump - 88h (0x88) is "fuel pump failure", then I would be looking at the fuel pump wiring.

A lack of fuel getting to the FBH (e.g. due to blocked pipes) would likely create a "no start" error, as the FBH would be happily operating the pump, but it couldn't light a flame due to no fuel.

If you need a replacement FBH fuel pump connector or any terminals etc to make up a new/temporary wire then I've got parts in the site shop: www.disco3.co.uk/shop/webasto-wiring-parts-c15.html

That does make sense come to think of it. logic would dictate, i should run the methodology Jonathan adopted with regards to running in a new wire off my test harness to the fuel pump.

ill give it a go over the weekend.

Good luck.

My approach is step by step diagnostics of each component. Then the problem usually presents itself sooner or later.

Took a while to figure mine out as it had a broken power supply to the pump and needed a new burner. Once those were fitted, I couldn't quite believe it didn't work properly. The last thing I expected was a part incompatibility (the pump).

That was a bit of a curve ball...
