DESCRIPTION

The power heater ECU receives engine operation signals from the L terminal of the generator. If this circuit is open, the power heater ECU will determine that engine operation signals indicate ON. If this circuit is shorted, the power heater ECU will determine that engine operation signals indicate OFF and the power heater will not operate.
