    This suggests a fuel supply problem, most likely due to aeration of the fuel supply to the auxiliary heater

    May be temporary, fuel 'slosh', parked on an incline, etc

Clear the code and carry out the function check. If the function check fails with a 'no-start' DTC, access the auxiliary heater fuel pump and check the pump for 'ticking' as the function check runs. Check the fuel lines from the auxiliary heater fuel pump to the auxiliary heater assembly and from the auxiliary heater fuel pump to the fuel tank. Rectify as necessary.
B1D33 Heating and Ventilation - Auxiliary Heating Flame interruption during normal operation
B1D34 Heating and Ventilation - Auxiliary Heating System in lock-out mode
