You can also put a regular fuel filter in line of the pump if you do make sure it is fairly level. Helps with the initial fuel fill up of that inline filter. That helps with that fuel screen not plugging up from water born contaminates.
I really appreciate your channel. I was a company driver for years but now I'm an OO. Thank you for all that you do. Your accent reminds me of Wisconsin or Minnesota! I love it. Take care
Thank you for this tutorial. From thermo king the heater element its self is 169.×× Cross referenced from there and went to Amazon, including the tool, and the gaskets and filter. 29.xx.
@@raytwal1 you mean to tell me....you're too lazy to find it????? No, im not holding your hand...we did half the work (tutorial video) and me mentioning where to get it....get your fat lazy @$$ off the bed and figure it out. Smfh
I heard with these heaters it’s best to run it on full blast for 15 minutes before turning it off to burn off any soot. Also it’s good to turn it on only for extended periods of time. If you’re turning it on for just a few minutes at a time it can damage from extra heat cycles.
@@DIYSEMI I heard that on a trucker forum a while back. I just ordered one for my current truck and it should be here to install next weekend. It’s been getting harder to sleep in the cold without one. As for the heat, I don’t think I’m going to buy a APU in the summer. I have an idea to put a oversized alternator on my Reefer unit and run a small window AC out the back of the sleeper. That can also charge my batteries so I can run a inverter while parked. I never set my unit on cycle while I sleep so it’s a perfect combo. Saves weight and one less thing to worry about. Let me know if it’s a bad idea. Thanks for the videos
@DIYSEMI can you please tell me where you find the fuel screens for the fuel pump? I'm striking out locating them. I just got 8pc set for my D2 espar on ebay for only 18 usd but doesn't come with the fuel screen replacement need your help fella. Thanks
Hey man, you ever have an issue with your bunk heater blowing warm air, but not hot? I went outside, tapped on the fuel pump, it's ticking and seems to be working. It's almost like the fuel isn't being fully ignited. Little bit of blue smoke out the exhaust. any thoughts? I'm running a space heater in the meantime :/ I ordered another fuel pump just in case, and I guess it's good to have a spare on hand anyway. It's an Espar D2L. Had the heater shut off on it's own a whole bunch of times too. It's like the fan kicks into over drive and than turns off. could it be the glow plug?
@@DIYSEMI hey I figured it out. it was actually a piece of crud that was stuck in the fuel filter, restricting the flow of diesel. No idea how that got in there, it was actually pretty big. 🤷🏻♂
I have the same problem! despite replacing the fuel filter and doing a full maintenance of taking the heater completely apart and cleaning it out and all the soot. I still have this problem of it just blowing cold air.
Question for you...i have been holding off on talking about financial stuff...for fear it might be in poor taste right now considering the situation....what do you think?
@@DIYSEMI I think right now is a good time to talk about finance. I meet soo many truck drivers in there 70s still driving because they cant afford to retire, it's really important to invest as soon as possible to be financial stable later in life.
Hey bro. Thank you so much for your videos. Quick question, is that place: thermo by products that you mention on the video about how to service your apu unit, also sells the kit for the heater? Thanks in advance for your help
Im trying to get my espar working. The fan isn't blowing at all and no codes seem to show on control unit. Looks to be plugged in and nothing plugged in fan. What am i missing
Not sure how to check that and nothing changed when it was working. Would it have anything to do with the fuel pump? I tried taking off the temp controller, but not really sure how that is connected or howbto remote without damaging

Try replacing burn chamber gasket. You hv take heater out of bunk. If the gasket is crack it’s getting air through cause not to work. There videos how replace burn chamber gasket. Hope that helps
My espar is giving me the code 13 overheat , but it said son line just to make sure nothing is blocking the air ducting system and there’s nothing on the way, what can it be ?
That is almost always caused by a plugged ignitor screen. Did you clean out that little vent hole inside there while you had the screen out? That will do it too

Thank you for not being long winded. Great instructions!
Thanks for the video. Just did mine tonight. Took two hours for the inside but I got it done!!!

I tried sourcing an inline style fuel filter for the tiny 1.5mm ID fuel line...and could never find one. Got a link?
Is that 12v or 24v
Thank you for this video

You should add air intake inspection to your pm ritual. Dust and pet air an accumulate and prevent adequate air intake. Thanks for posting.
And if my heater is not blowing any smoke or anything out of the exhaust and it's blowing out room temp air out of the vents?
I got a code f15 temp set, what is that and what is fix. I hope u see this

yep, thats called short cycling...causes build up in the unit

It is probably the vent hole is plugged limiting air flow

Webasto is different, had to disassemble the whole thing to clean out the burn chamber & glow plug, espar is superior design
Are the screens the same size in and out of the truck?
Where is this box Inside?
Under the bunk
What are the screens parts numbers? Please

Yes, they carry most of the parts for the heater. Check the other comments in this video, someone posted some links to the items. Thanks for watching.

Thank You 🙏 Brother ❤
We're do I buy the screens from
try thermobyproducts.com or any thermo king or carrier dealer/shop
I have issue it says 52 52 0 0 0 0 Flame not detect how I can fix this issue on my espar? Thanks
How many hours he will stay running for?, because my doesn't stay running for more than 4 hours
Should stay running longer than that. Is your battery voltage dropping too low? That will definately cause it to shut off.
Try replacing burn chamber gasket. You hv take heater out of bunk. If the gasket is crack it’s getting air through cause not to work. There videos how replace burn chamber gasket. Hope that helps
My espar is giving me the code 13 overheat , but it said son line just to make sure nothing is blocking the air ducting system and there’s nothing on the way, what can it be ?
dirty screen disrupting airflow maybe

Ty for the vid
Digging out the screen reminds me of the game operation
Did change the glow plug n screen but still white smoke comes no ignition
That is almost always caused by a plugged ignitor screen. Did you clean out that little vent hole inside there while you had the screen out? That will do it too
Try replace burnt chamber gasket. That well cause blue smoke also. You hv take heater out of bunk to do. Hope this helps you.

Awesome, thanks!
Thank you!
My Espar stays in for about 4 minutes then it shut off.... what could it be ?
Probably an airflow issue
There is a little vent hole next to the igniter
If that plugs it can cause this problem
Thank you
Thanks Bud
