This Van Diesel Heater Problem Almost Beat Me… Until I Built This

My van’s hydronic heater worked… but not the way I needed it to.
Coolant temperature, valve timing, blower behavior — none of it was coordinated.
So I designed and built a custom controller from scratch.
In this video I walk through:
• The real-world problem I was trying to solve
• A temporary workaround that wasn’t good enough
• Designing a custom UI and control logic
• Building an Arduino-based controller
• And finally testing it on the actual heater system
This project involved temperature sensors, relays, a motorized valve, a blower delay, and more debugging than I care to admit.
If you’re into van builds, Arduino projects, or solving real problems with DIY electronics — this one’s for you.
🔧 Components used:
• Arduino Nano Every
• DS18B20 temperature sensors
• Motorized coolant valve
• OLED display + rotary encoder
• Custom enclosure
Thanks for watching — and yes, it actually works now
