upgrade kit for your auxiliary heater
Does your Grand California have an auxiliary heater? Then upgrade it to an auxiliary heater! To upgrade, you only need the corresponding CAN gateway T6.x and your Cali will have an auxiliary heater.
How do I know if my vehicle has an auxiliary heater?
It's very simple: If your VW Crafter, Grand California or MAN TGE has an auxiliary heater, you will find a "Webasto" sticker on the left B-pillar.
My vehicle already has an air heater – is a water heater still worth it?
Yes, definitely! Even if your vehicle is already equipped with an auxiliary air heater, it can make sense to upgrade the existing auxiliary heater to a water heater. Why? It's simple: the air heater only heats the interior, not the cooling water or the engine. And since the warm air comes from the rear vents and not from the nozzles on the windshield, it takes forever for your windows to finally defrost.
How do I control the fan in the interior?
Don't worry, it's really easy. The delivery includes a module that is simply connected to the connector on the back of the climate control unit. This controls the interior fan and you're ready to go.
Which controls can I use?
After the upgrade, you can easily switch the heating and ventilation on and off with a +12V signal. Whether you use a switch, button or other control element - everything that delivers a +12V output signal works. And if you select a control element when ordering, the appropriate connection cable for the CAN gateway is included.
