Hi, I don’t suppose anyone knows what the resistance should be of the these two items on a d5lc

I can’t find it on their website?

Many thanks

Just be aware, a while back when I used to play with them, I had a D2 which used to shut down shortly after startup, It was throwing up a code that said overheat. I checked the sensor using the ohm reading, it came out as good BUT it continued to fail, IIRC the unit would run on the bench with it disconnected as a test.I bought a new sensor and fitted it, it worked ok thereafter! Go figure!
I wrote it up for PBO. Eberspacher got all bent out of shape about dangerous practices being promulgated through the media. I calmly wrote back to them pointing out that as a maintenance engineer it was quite common for me and people like me to run tackle in test situations with out the safety devices to check them out and as long as care was taken it was not an issue.
The guy also took umbrage with the fact that I had said Eber recommended running on kerosene to clean the combustion chambers. He thundered that Eber did not and that I was talking rubbish! Luckily i had bookmarked the page on the American site where this advice was offered. I sent him the link and a copy of the advice!
 
thanks for that, I struggle to understand the cost of them, I thought one for the tumble dryer was expensive, nothing compared to the price wanted for one of these...!
 
Send me your email, I will send you the whole troubleshooting manual. I don't have success attaching the file to this message...
