pre heater diesel
I have a 2003 CDTi with pre heater with fob. It has gradually ceased to work. I think the problem is that the diesel fuel is not reaching the unit. What is the likely reason ? Where is the pump for the feed please ? When switched on it will 'hum' for a short time and then stop. No fuel is coming through the small narrow feed pipe. Help, basically. thank you.

The pump is just in front of the driver's side rear wheel mounted on a bracket.. It is not a continuous 12v feed so you need to swiped 12v across it to check it is working. |

Him John.
Photo of the said pump on the car below, as above flick some power across the pump to see if it is working or not, most of the time though these pumps are reliable.

If its working it must be clicking, you need to tap 12v to it about every half second to test it, The FBH after an initial test of the pump doesn't call for fuel until after 30 seconds so it is not necessarily a fuel pump issue you have, describe what happens when you turn it on
