Hats off to French Mike but I would have figured it out myself, it’s my job to fix electronics...so if I choose to sell that skill I will, after all that’s how I make a living,
I rebuild vintage hi fi reel to reel tape machines for fun, but I could never hope to make any profit doing it, cost way too much to do, all that test gear and time don’t come free. Don’t worry I’m not about to start a cottage industry.

Hello I need your help. I have bmw e39 webasto. And it shows me candle mistake. The candle itself is good, all smd are checked and they are good. I do not know where else to look for problems. I hope you can help me

Hi Arminas, when you say candle mistake do you mean glow plug and where are you reading the error, is it from the Webasto thermis test ?

I think I found the problem with the glow plug. My error was that SMD resistor needs to be measured both sides. Now I'm waiting for details next week then I'll say how it went. But there's another problem, I have another pcb whose mistake is a circulation pump + everything shows 106 degrees though it is on my desk. Thermistor is 4.6Kom. Where do you need me to look?

I'm using a program WTT.

I managed to fix the temperature mistake. I took out the thermistor and put it in again and it started showing good temperature. Theres just another problem with the water pump, the pump itself is good but WTT shows 2 problems, Circulating pump short circuit and Circulating pump interruption. I will be waiting for tips on where I could look for a problem.

Can you post a picture after you checked the resistors.

What did you test to come to this conclusion.

What details, and how what went

You need to clear all errors

1. I have 3 PCB and I checked everything it showed. 2. Cold resistance is 0.4kOm 3. Resistor 2002 20kOm. but theres no exact information yet, just my guess

Take a look under that chewing gum on the PCB it corrodes resistors under it.

Thanks for the tip

But the chewing gum was took off, and the picture is a example for information.
