About Heater Controls

A vehicle’s Transit Ford heater controls are situated in the dashboard of a vehicle and can be used to adjust the temperature of the heating inside the vehicle. The heater inside the vehicle uses the heat from the engine, which is converted in to hot air and blown in to the vehicle’s passenger compartment.  When heat is built up in the engine, it is transferred to the coolant, which is passed to the exhaust and radiator to protect the engine from overheating. The heater is attached to the radiator.

When the passenger in the vehicle turns the dials on the Transit Ford heater controls the heat from the heater’s core is transferred to the passenger compartment of the vehicle.

It is important to have the proper mix of coolant and water in the system. Coolant has to be at a set level, so it is important to ensure there are no leaks.

If your vehicle’s heating system is not working properly it is important to get it checked as soon as possible. If the heating system is not working, it is possible that your vehicle’s engine cooling system is also not working. This can be a very serious for the wellbeing of your vehicle’s engine.

Ford Transit trivia

  • Not only is the Ford Transit the van of choice for bands on tour, but it was also outed as the top choice vehicle for bank robbers. The Met released a statement in 1972 calling it ‘Britain’s most wanted van’. It is believed that the Ford Transit was used in up to 95% of bank robberies.
  • Before national speed limits were introduced in the UK, the engineers for Ford would often be spotted carrying out late-night speed tests in a Ford Transit. The police would occasionally stop them, not to hand out a fine but to check on the progress of the team.
  • In 1965 a group of students wanted to see how many people they could get into a first-generation Ford Transit. In the end, they managed to squeeze in 48 people.
  • When the first Ford Transit went on sale, it cost just £542, which would be £8,983.12 in today’s money.
  • The Ford Transit XXL is a one-off version of the classic van that is designed to offer the limousine experience. Its 7.4-metres long, has seven Captain’s chairs (leather-trimmed of course), and a personal entertainment screen for every passenger.
