10 - Metering pump - V54-

❑ Location: on fuel tank.
❑ Check fuel supply to auxiliary heater.
❑ It is possible that the metering pump ticks audibly but still does not deliver fuel because there is air in the
intake. The control unit then switches it off completely. You should therefore read the fault memory using
vehicle diagnosis, testing and information system - VAS 5051A- , Self-diagnosis of Thermo Top V aux‐
iliary heater. Erase fault memory and carry out final control diagnosis of Thermo Top V auxiliary heater.
❑ Testing quantity of fuel delivered ⇒ page 44
Note
♦ As of Week 12/06, the diesel ver‐

sion has a fuel shut-off valve -

rectly at the fuel-line connection
of the auxiliary heater, and also
has a new metering pump - V54-
(grey plastic cap). The control
unit for the auxiliary heater -
J364- is also new. The metering
pump - V54- has a bypass for re‐
ducing the fuel pressure be‐
tween the fuel shut-off valve -
N109- and the metering pump -
V54- when the auxiliary heater is
switched off.

8 Regulation of auxiliary heater Ther‐

mo Top V
The auxiliary heater is intended to heat coolant.
Various operating modes can be set depending on heat required
in heating circuit:
Note
One method of switching off the auxiliary heater is to press the

ECON button. Starting conditions
⇒ “2.1 Starting conditions for auxiliary heating (preheater)”, page
2 or ⇒ “2.2 Starting conditions for auxiliary heating”, page 2
8.1 Functional description of auxiliary heat‐

er Thermo Top V
Temperature at temperature sensor - G18- less than 50 °C.
Temperature at ambient temperature sensor - G17- must be be‐
low approx. +5 °C.
Turning on the switch enables operation of the auxiliary heater.
The glow plug with flame monitor - Q8- , the combustion air blower
- V6- and the circulation pump - V55- begin to operate. After 30
seconds, the metering pump - V54- is switched on and the com‐
bustion air blower - V6- is switched off for 3 seconds. Then the
combustion air blower - V6- runs up in two stages to nearly full
load within 56 seconds. After a stabilisation phase (attaining
steady motor speed) of 15 seconds, the combustion air blower -
V6- is again brought up to nearly full load in a 50-second stage.
After reaching full-load fuel delivery, the glow plug with flame
monitor - Q8- is switched off and the combustion air blower - V6-
is brought up to full speed. During the next 45 seconds as well as
during normal operation, the glow plug with flame monitoring - Q8-
assumes the task of flame monitoring and checks flame devel‐
opment. Then the automatically regulated heating operation
begins. If no flame develops or the flame extinguishes, then the
fuel supply is interrupted and a malfunction shut-down occurs with
the combustion air blower - V6- continuing in run-on mode. If the
flame is extinguished during normal operation, a new start is au‐
tomatically initiated.
8.1.1 Preheating mode

Once the coolant temperature has reached 84 ℃, the control unit
switches to the energy-saving part load mode. If the coolant tem‐
perature continues to rise above 88 °C, the control unit switches
to the controlled waiting period. If the coolant temperature does
not drop below 76 ℃ within 900 seconds during the controlled
waiting period, the heating unit will start with the normal start pro‐
cedure in full-load mode when the coolant temperature does drop
below 76 ℃.

combustion is ended and the run-on mode begins. The circulation
pump - V55- and the combustion air blower - V6- , however, con‐
tinue to run to cool down the auxiliary heater (run-on mode) and
are switched off automatically.
Note
The run-on period of the circulation pump - V55- and the com‐
bustion air blower - V6- depends on the operating mode in which
the auxiliary heater was switched off.
The run-on period is 175 seconds when heater is switched off

during full-load operation and 110 seconds for part-load opera‐
tion.
Depending on the control unit software version, slight deviations
in the specified run-on values are possible.
8.2 Functional description of “large” remote
