- Has your Chinese diesel heater got a controller showing the temperature in pulse rate?
Do you want the temperature to show in degrees C.
In this short video I show How To Change Pulse Rate P Setting To Temperature In Degrees on Chinese Diesel Heater LED Controller.
I bought my full air heater kit from Ebay: rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-534...
This was the LED controller that came with the kit and it was set to the pump pulse rate instead of degree temperature.
Fortunately it's just a quick fix to get it showing degrees C so you have thermostatic control over the air temperature.

Brilliant and thanks for showing how to go from Htz to Centigrade, my auto electrician didn’t even know.
You answered my question in the first 4 seconds... Thank you again. You are my go to guy.
Just installed one of these in my bus 👍👍 really liking it so far thank you for showing this
Thanks so much for posting this! Helped me out a lot. 👍🏻
Thank for posting this exactly what I was looking for 👍
Very helpful, thank you. Was trying to figure out how to do this.
Hi Tom,
Your'e welcome.
Thanks for watching..
ATB, Steve
Simple answer to exactly what I was looking for!!!!! Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching Dima 👍
Brilliant video!! Quick and easy
Thank you for your video! I was searching for new controllers thinking mine was broke oh, just a setting wonderful thank you
Thank you, glad it helped.
ATB, Steve
Thanks very much. I wanted to change from temp to pulse quickly, and without having to use the manual.
Great explanation! 👍 👍
Thx a lot my friend! you've solved my problem with you video. I couldn't set the temperature to what I wanted it to be. Could only see the temperture as measured in the van! greetings from the netherlands!
Thanks for that, what a nightmare trying to decipher, Chinese translated to English. I did what you did with the boat tank, works a treat. I installed it in a toolbox on the A frame.
Cheers that was great and very helpful
Nice work man.Thanks👍
Very helpful thank you
Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks you so much.. i understand.. now for temperature 👌
Thanks for this i couldnt figure it out 👍
Thank you!!! 👍😁
Thanks ! I Just solved all my issue :)
Big thanks for that
Thanks a lot 😊
Thank you. Very helpful 😊
Thank you Kerrie,
Glad it was helpful 👍
Thanks 👍👍👍🇫🇮
Lifesaver!
the small campervan I have it in gets to hot on only the lowest setting. If I reduce the pulse rate will this change still work on auto. I have never seen how the thermostat works. Does it range the pulse rate of the pump only? Thanks for the video!
Thank you Sir!
Thank for watching 👍
Thanks Old Chap

Thanks
Thank you so much
Hi Chris,
Thanks for watching, hope it helped 👍
Top man
Fitting my heater I wanted the pump under the van, so to save cutting a big hole for the pump electric plug on the end of the harness to go through I cut the wire in half and fed the wire up through a small hole, went to join the wires together I found they are both the same colour , Do you know if it matters which way round they go ,, Thanks,, Bob
Thanks, couldn't figure out how to switch back to pulse rate. Sure wish it was in F° though.....
I just put one in my van and I'm very impressed with the heater, but the interface is God awful on the controller. Thanks for the video!
yeah, I agree, the controller lets it down..!!!
ATB, Steve
Do you know any other controllers? Mine looks like that, but there’s no time option nor can I find the pulse rate, which is what I want. The rate is about 2x faster than my friend’s and it’s eating fuel. Pushing settings and up at the same time sets a 10hr timer to turn off/on.
Muito bom
Thanks for the video. Will the heater continue to run once it reaches set temp or will it shut down and restart when needed ? Thanks for your time
The heater throttles down the fuel pump speed and fan speed to give a 'tickover' mode.
It does not shut down at all.
Thanks for the explanation. I wonder if you know what the PF setting 1 to 6 is for at the end of the factory settings menu is for? Thanks.
Hi Ian
The PF setting is related to the amount of power going to the glow plug.
It gives you adjustment of what wattage u want to give the glow plug
🙏
You really helped me thanks you 😁
Some time I’ve got a low voltage error even when my system is over 12 volts any idea why ?
Thanks you
@Martyn Watson yes I’ve put a bigger cable and it was good
only take power directly from the battery Never of the solar array, and replace the thin wires by 12 or 10 gauge = 4mm2 or 6mm2 to avoid voltage drop.
Great vid. I have a question. How can I adjust the screen's brightness, if possible? Thx
Hi Clifford,
You can't get the screen any brighter...!!
This seems to be a popular question about these controllers and there doesn't appear to be any answer.
Sorry.
ATB, Steve
I couldn’t tell you how exactly, but there is a way to install a small on/off switch for the LCD screen by adding it along the red wire (which powers the screen but didn’t affect the heater) then you can turn it off at night if it’s too bright!
For the other controller it is okay and the up button instead of settings and the up button
Hi there’s
I have a question for you.
I have a simple rotary controller and at the lowest setting it is too warm if it’s not really cold out.
Since the heater never shuts off just runs at the lowest setting when I the temperature is reached.
Can the LCD controllers be set to a lower temperature than the rotary ones?
What is the lowest temperature they can be set at?
Can the pulse rate be set to achieve a lower temperature setting?
Ok.. that’s it. Thanks for your help and best wishes.
No they can"t . low is idle and that's it .
so what is the best pulse rate for american made truck diesel ? what does varying pulse rate do to the burner running lean or rich and does it carbon up the burner faster.. what would be the indications to increase or decrease pulse rate ?
If you just use the UP/ Down function than there is no danger for soot . regardless the hz .
Can the controller be set to degrees in Fahrenheit? I’m In the US?
Thanks, do yo know where to get a remote control for these as I misplaced mine ? Cheers
Hi Paul,
There are lots to choose from on Amazon.

Just match up to you control unit.
Hope this helps,

Hi matey, I have a problem with my controller whereby the mode resets to the “power” mode each time the heater is turned off. When I turn it back on again it has returned to this mode whatever I do. Any idea how to fix this so that it turns on in “thermostat mode” when it is turned on? Thanks, great film 👍🏼
Have you been able to fix this? I'm having problems with my controller doing anything at all!!
@@kristirobertson5443 no. Haven’t found any fix for this yet.
@@kristirobertson5443 does it just stay blank , a bit more info please.
@@pauls466 it's ok, I've fixed it by actually reading the manual lol. It turns out that it's a different set up to yours.
only have a start time and no stop time in the timer. Is that correct. And i can set the time tot 99.99 ?????
Help! My controller seems to be stuck on its current settings,. It says P13v. If I press the settings button once it goes to 01.0 hrs and then I can't change the time by pressing the up and down arrows. Is there a problem with the controller or me?!
The same process toggles to Hz mode, correct? My van home is blazing hot at lowest 8km heater thermostat setting. Is the thermostat broke, or this this just the case where setting manual pump rate might be the answer? Can I "scientifically" determine a comfortable rate, or just set it slower and slower until I can no longer cook an egg on the floor. Is there a minimum pump rate?
Hi,
Yes, you can toggle between Deg and Hz that way.
You can alter pump rate, fan speed etc. which will lower the output temperature a bit, but if it's not slowing down when temperature is met, you my well have a faulty controller...?
There is a minimum pump rate, 0.8Hz, that can be achieved by going into these settings.
I have a video of how to access these setting here;

ATB, Steve
Great, thanks. Pulse rate and fan should be set specifically for operation at elevation, where default mix is rich -- per Stoke Loaf Van guide entitled. Chinese Diesel Heater Elevation Adjustment.
Thanks so much. If fan speed adjusts automatically with pump rate, why is there a separate fan setting? I've read conflicting advice regarding fuel-air mix settings at elevation. How can one determine settings scientifically?
hello hoping you can help an point me in right direction ive fitted new all in one heater just like yours its ran tidy for about 3 days used in the night its now blowing black smoke and if i turn it up a little i get code saying no fuel yet its full tank any ideas as to what it could be an much appreciated if you could adviseme thanks in advance
Strange...?
Sounds like over rich fuel or air mixtures are wrong to give black smoke..
Normally they run very good straight out of the box.
Check that the air filter is not blocked or the pipe is not crushed as well.
If your getting a no fuel code, then it would simply shut down, so more than likely an air problem.
But don't quote me on that one....!!
@@TheWrinklyNomads yes it was fuel mixture was wrong reset it an running fine thank you
Is it not power ? Temperature you regulate when pressing other side buttons. As if lets say its heater 2-8kw. And it was on 3 hz, and you change to c. Then you set the fixed power to 3hz/kw and you only adjust c. But you cant increase powwr to 8hz/kw. Or it adjusts power itself then ?
Essentially 'P' is pulse rate and it just alters the amount of fuel pulses the pump delivers to the burner, and stays at that rate.
'C' is a thermostatically operated control which will speed up or slow down the pulse rate relative to the temperature you have set it at.
So, 'P' can be thought of more like a manual control and 'C' as automatic.
Hi there I have this heater can you turn off the display panel or does it stay on all the time
Hi Neil,
The controller panel will stay on all the time.
There are MANY different controllers A few dimm and some go out , most stay lit.
What is the highest temp it can be set to?
40 degrees C on mine
Farenheight settings available instead of celcius?
Doesn’t look like it - gonna try to memorize the conversion ;)
No ;)
I just purchased this unit and come to find out that the temperature setpoint does not cycle the unit on and off but rather adjusts the pulse rate of the fuel delivery, meaning the unit is always blowing the fan and always burning fuel? wtf?
No make of diesel air heater will cycle on and off.
They all throttle the fuel delivery and fan speed down to minimum when the air temperature is reached.
I have a problem a symbol has came up on my display it look like a no entry sign and l can't get my heater to work
Regards Ron
that symbol just means the heater is OFF . does it give a Code like E06 after a attempt to start .
If anyone finds out how to switch from Celsius to Fahrenheit or 24 hour mode to 12-hour mode let me know please
Only the Red controllers had that option . These do not.
Has anyone figured out how to change to Fahrenheit?
Hi Kevin,
If you press the up and down arrows at the same time the controller will cycle though degs C to dges F 👍
The pulse rate can be used to eliminate using more fuel and battery life extender... I am testing one now that seems to be fine on a lower pulse rate... you'll notice the pulse rate will also dictate the fan speed... so a lower pulse rate will give you a lower fan speed and in turn you will save fuel and battery power... It can make a huge difference when you run it for let's say 20 minutes.. with a 3 to 5 crank up and a 5 or so shutdown.. for a total of about Thus at a 30 minute run time.. including the start up and shut down procedure...s .. You should notice a pretty good savings on fuel and power.. try it !
didn't work for me
I believe there a one or two controller variations, but generally this method works, especially for this type of controller.
@@TheWrinklyNomads alright thanks... does the until need to be running ?
My controller does nothing in these videos!!!!!!!!
Possibly a faulty controller..?
For those of you with the different controller, press left arrow and ok ( center button ) together, this fixes it, gets ot out of "P"
Thanks Rob 👍
How do I set the pulse rate on the bluetooth controller (with the rotary knob)?
Hi.
Sorry but I've only used this standard type of controller, so I'm not familiar with the other types.
