Posts: 83,655 Thanks: 1483 Trader Rating: 10 ![]() | Re: Bypassing the Heater Matrix real men do need to see though, no matrix can mean no demister, this should be looked at as a get you out of trouble fix, not a permant one. It is a whole lot better than adding the pour in crap to try and plug a hole though ![]()

Posts: 27 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Re: Bypassing the Heater Matrix Just fit a bottle of Forte cooling system conditioner / sealer,I have known this last for several years & if leak re appears fit another bottle. This stuff is amodern chemical sealer,it stays active for other leaks in the system & does not block water ways up internaly like some old makes used too. Its trade only so just find a garage that uses it & buy a bottle. Usually about £10.

Posts: 7 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Re: Bypassing the Heater Matrix + I have just bought my first and maybe last camper this year and the first unexpected job was to replace the by passed heater. I was told that the van overheated so they also by passed the cooling fan switch to have control. When I put another heater in I put everything back as it should be. On running the engine the fan kicks in and out as it should at 90deg just need to test now in the spring next year.Ken
