Fuel burning heater test

Dudes
Is there any way to test the FBH ? I have only had my car a few weeks and I don't know if its been cold enough to activate it
Cheers for the intel

Try and spray plumbers freezer spray on to the outdoor temperature sensor to make it think it is below 5*c and then start the car. Can't remember how easy it is to get to though, its in the front bumper behind a bit of plastic! Guess you could just unleash a whole can in to the front bumper and hope it's cold enough!

Or you have the option of my FBH module that will clear faults, prime the fuel pump, and it will also do a 30 min or 45 min run which will pre warm the water on a morning before you get in Smile , see main page.
