Gen 2 Chevy Volt cabin heater

Post by TonyV »

Does anyone know how this heater is controlled?
I have search on Google and here but there is very little info.

Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
I'll figure this out sooner or later

Sorry no i haven't.
Got it installed but just have reached the point yet where i need to dive in deeper.
But from Jack Richards video its a single wire canbus. and I guess you will need a Single wire controller. :?

Good luck.
Tony
