Why does cold air come from the lower vent of the sleeper bed along with the vent above the bunk my heater works good in the sleeper but at the same time cold air is blowing from the vents .
Maybe you guys still exist on TH-cam, not sure. But I have a question. I bought a 2019 T680 through a third party and they turned the clean idle off with a programmer, since then I've engaged the auto start through the dash and while it says it's on I've never been able to get the truck to turn on. Are the two things connected?
Can you make video for how to remove the filter for the same 680 idle to clean it or change it became i tried to remove the filter its very spongy and seem hard to pull out of top under the bed and i dont want to rip it
my truck is T660 2014. the sleeper birth heater power doesn't come ON. what do I do? Because sometimes I want the engine to also rest so I want to use the sleeper birth heater while the engine is off
When i run my bunk heater after a while my dash will start beeping saying low boltage so i have to wake up and start the truck. Is my bunk heater killing my battery?
Also, it is not killing the battery to the truck. It has four dedicated batteries to the system. Here's a general overview of the system... www.kenworth.com/news/news-releases/2014/july/kims.aspx
I have on my truck a espar. it looks like that but smaller. it will not come on. the does not idle at below 78 its something wrong. brand new 2015. Help!!
+Cody Ferry If your regular battery is below 11.7 volts it will not run. If that has the correct voltage and continues to shut off we would assume there's an issue with the system... Hope that helps!
@@silvernblue911 yea turns out the guy who had it before said it didn't work, and I myself couldn't get it to work. All it took was some patience, if I had it below 75 it wouldn't turn on it had to be above 76 and holy shit it gets hot lol
@@silvernblue911 the other reason could be u might need to clean filter under bunk or u gotta reset the unit. Or it needs to go into shop. Is it ur own truck or company
The system KW Idle Management system will not operate when the truck engine is running. There is really no need if the engine is running you can operate the A/C or heat off the truck A/C or Heating system.
Turn on the ac in the sleeper using the regular dials and snowflake button,then hit the button in the mixer dial in the cab. It will turn on the sleeper ac/heat. It has nothing to do with what they are talking about in this video though.
Brand spanking new 2023 truck and it worked for a total 3 hours now it refuses to come back on. It's fully charged and control module works as it should but the system won't turn on. Absolute waste of money.
Great.System runs off its own battery.So rhats another battery i have to buy.Doesnt say how many hours of useage you get.Bummer,kinda makes us not interested.
Truck air compressor just went out but I’ll b ok till I get back 2 my shop…NOT! Sitting n my 2015 t680 hot asf right now. Just put 4 brand new adm batteries n the truck a month ago & apu only runs a few hours then shuts off. New filter under bunk, truck voltmeter reads 14. Virtually maintenance free my ass! Stick with the tripac diesel apus guys. These electric ones are hot garbage & the price on those adm batteries is absolutely ridiculous!
Video released 9 years ago & still helping me out today
How many batteries?
What type of batteries?
How long can the dedicated batteries run for?
And whats the warranty on the batteries?
Bless you God lil helper.. I was getting hot in the bunk

How much does it cost to add this to the truck?

Voltage
If your batteries are dying prematurely you may have a bad battery or two...

I have a 2019 t680 Kent my horn keep going off when I use it at night
The horn will only go off if you open the door after you turn the auto start feature on.

Mine is at low battery and shuts off every 5 seconds. How can i fix that if im just sitting here and having the truck on dont do nothing?

I'm having the same problem. Did you ever figure out what causing this and how did you fix the issue?
i can not get my battries to charge
Very helpful thanks
I can't get mine to turn on at all. I froze my ass off

@@Bendigo1 which one's the mixer dial?
My batteries aren’t recharging
never seen working this on used truck s
You have to engage the system. The specific process for that varies by model and year (I've heard).
Thanks ❣
Too many problems already bought new Kenworth with power management system..

Trash. This never works in neither 018 KW I drive. I’m in a steaming hot sleeper as we speak
I have to say Kenworths are the worst trucks I have ever tried. Such garbage. Especially the 2024. Its a complete mess. Nothing ever works.
I have 2024 T680
And it’s JUNK!
@@NASCAR_NEAL Yep that’s the one I drove for 2 week. Absolute garbage. Im back in a good old Freightliner Columbia.
