* Inertia Switch:
All 12 volt Scholastic Series heaters are equipped with a manual reset inertia switch usually located in the vicinity of
the burner head (look for a device with a round diaphragm red in color and about the size of a 25 cent piece on top).
The purpose of this switch is to stop heater operation in the event the vehicle is involved in an accident or receives a
strong impact shock, i.e. hitting a curb. This is done automatically by opening the combustion fan motor circuit,
stopping air and fuel delivery.
When troubleshooting, check to make certain inertia switch has not been tripped. Resetting is accomplished by
depressing the red diaphragm on top of the switch. You should hear an audible click when switch resets.
