    i replaced the heater switch because of an advise of the "cucv electric" guys...my gen1 light was glowing dimly, i noticed in the dark at the way back home, on the autobahn.

    all at bad weather conditions...freezing cold day. the truck won`t go above 90kmh/56mph, the fuel gauge was dancing around and showing 1:1 what`s going on in the diesel tank, the coolant reservior was cracked and empty, the whiper just stopped where you turn it off...sure, mostly in the middle...
