Webasto Thermostat Rebuild For Common Problems

By Marie Burns


Is the temperature in your home fluctuating a lot recently? No matter where you set your thermostat to you never feel the heat or the air conditioner working? You are probably suffering from a broken thermostat. Thermostats are one of the great inventions of our day. Think about it, you can put the exact degree that you want your home to be at, and it automatically goes to it. As amazing as it is, it can be very frustrating when they don't work. If your room temperature is changing, it might not always be your heat regulator causing the problem. Another good indicator that it is the heat regulator is if the heat regulator itself is acting strangely by turning on and off and or other strange things. At this point you need to call a professional webasto thermostat rebuild.

Even more advanced digital and zone-control regulators just function as thermometers that switch the HVAC system on and off depending on the temperature. As an electronic switch, the regulator needs to be hooked up to power for it to work and communicate with the heating and air conditioning equipment.

Changing the heat regulator- In order to take out and put in the new heat regulator turn off the power to the unit, then unscrew the access plate. Remove both the lower and upper access plates. Some models have one screw while others have two. Make sure to save the insulation that pops out for when you fix the plate back in. It would also be a good idea to remove the plastic covers from both the heat regulators.

If you work with an outside professional to fix your heat regulator, make sure that they can come, examine, and give you the exact price upfront. There is nothing worse than getting an 'estimate' just to find out the estimate was far off and additionally you have to now pay other hidden fees.

If the problem with the regulator is not the power, it could be the location the regulator is installed. Except in very advanced models with multiple temperature sensors over the building, most regulators have the thermometer built in. That means if the regulator was built into an area that does not represent the air temperature in your home then it will give false readings.

Changing the heat regulator- Taking out the old heat regulator is simple. You just need to pull on the bracket slightly until you see the wires behind it. Remove each wire and remember where each wire went. Then take the heat regulator to a supply store near you and ask them for a replacement.

Check to ensure that the circuit is closed with a continuity tester probe, but only if you are sure about the correct way to use it. If the circuit is closed, then you can be sure that the problem lies elsewhere. Call a professional repair service provider who can probe around more thoroughly to located and determine the root of the problem.

The regulator dial may be set incorrectly. The regulator dial may get knocked accidentally while using the refrigerator. If you find it set wrong, correct it to read 37-degrees Fahrenheit, as the optimum temperature to keep food fresh is between 37 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit. If you still retain the manufacturer's manual, follow the guidelines for the exact temperature mentioned here. Check the temperature after about an hour using a meat thermometer and ensure that you also check the temperature inside the freezer.
