Title: Aux heater switch
Post by: Jameson78 on December 19, 2013, 06:44:53 PM
Hi everyone! I would like to not turn on the auxiliary heater  while driving. Do you have any solutions? 2003 1.9TDi (AUY) (Sorry my bad english)

The easiest way to disable the heater is to remove fuse 12 or you can remove the ambient temperature switch and extend the wiring back into the car and with your own switch you can control the heater.
The ambient temperature switch is found clipped to the wiper linkage behind the battery/coolant bottle after removing the bulkhead extension.
