Webasto Noises ?
Well , Got My Webasto fixed at ETLC , Thanks Jeff ! It will really kick out some Heat ! Having never had it going since We got the Coach. I did not know what to expect as far as any noises coming from it. There have been a Couple times of running it for 2.5 days. That it sounds like someone is Pounding on a Washtub. LOL , Is this when it is Re-Igniting or something ?

The sound of a proper running Webasto burner is a high pitch whine from the motor and plastic clutches. Noise is smooth and very little if any varing in sound.
The exhaust is a robust smooth roar with no spitting or missing. The exhaust will be clear of any visible vapor, nearly no smell and will not make eyes water or burn if in exhaust stream.
I do not understand beating on a washtub especially if Jeff fixed it. There is an ignition sound right as it ignites following a 20 to 30 second start up purge. But once ignited, a smooth robust roar.

No doubt in My mind that Jeff will dial it in. It kicks out the heat for sure, But has Quit a couple of times at night. Simply turning the dash rocker switch off and then back on and everything is good ! It has only made the noises that I spoke of a couple of times. Might never make them again ???

Well, wouldn’d you know it, we have an intermittant issue faulting in the middle of the night.
There are many reasons the burner will fault. Guessing which one is a real game. Were you parked near me, I can loan parts till the right one is found to stop the faulting. But guessing long distance is educated guessing and if you are buying parts, a wrong guess is expensive.
If you wish to call me, I can give you some tests to perform that might give a hint what the problem is.

Thanks Rudy, But Jeff will take care of it. He had worked on it and got it running. But had not had a chance to put it thru its paces before He had to go on a Trip. Wife and I showed up to visit the Coach for a few days, And Have put it to the test. I am Impressed with the Heat it kicks out for sure ! Just from all the posts I have read on them , They seem to be a Complicated unit. All I know about it is How to operate the Thermostat end !
