Check fuse 29 in the cabin fusebox.

Fuse 29, 10A supplies the relay coils of both of these relays, so if it is missing, those error messages can be expected, and no electrical cabin heating.

Funny thing is that the heating works. hot and cold is coming in. i will add a 10a fuse there and see what happens

Very fast appearance of hot air even with cold engine?

yes

It's difficult to say which fuses any particular individual car should or should not have fitted, but in the case of fuse 48 it's easy. From May 2013 > it is described as 'not assigned'.

i will add a 10a fuse there and see if that fixes the problem. i will have to go to the mechanic again because i dont have a diagnostic tool

Look carefully into each fuse location, where there are no fuses, and see if there are the metal contacts top and bottom that would actually make electrical contact and physically hold a fuse in place. If one or both metal contacts are missing, no fuse can be fitted there.

I guess you mean 34, I can see 33 is there, and your engine ECU would not work well without 33!

Fuse 34 looks like it is used on some engine variants, but not yours.

yes you are right 33 is ok, counted wrong and it dont have contacts too :))

i will come back later this week me with a update for the diagnostic

the mechanic did not have time today

thank you @Breezy_Pete a legend

can you recomend a cheap diagnostic tool, or solution so i can do it myself?

  • Sponsor

Not sure about cheap diagnostics, I use VCDS which some people regard as expensive.

If you have very good eyesight, and good lighting, (or just cunning use of mobile phone camera) the fuse locations are all numbered.
