Hi
My '05 FL has a FBH (fuel burning heater) and I have noticed that when I get to my destination in it still running despite having driven over 20 miles, the temp is approx 2 deg.
I thought it would come on when the engine is cold to help it all warm up, once the engine is up to temp I would expect the FBH to turn off and remain off.
Is this normal or is there a fault somewhere?

They are good, especially in the frosty mornings, although it does leave small black splodges on my driveway from the downward facing exhaust...
