2 for diesel(DA-6), 1 for gas(BA-6).
Check the fuel pump with 12V first.
With good condition, you can hear and see the pump working!

Subject: How many fuel pumps does a Eberspacher BA6 Gas Heater have?

I have a  Eberspacher BA6 heater on Pokey that isn't working. The glow plug
works and I am getting gas as far as the pump but the hose beyond it the
hose is dry. The pump is located on the passenger side, off of the main fuel
line before it hits the main fuel filter for the engine (which incidentally
means it is not filtered either since my fuel filter is located after the
main fuel pump. There is just the one pump on mine, and a lot of people have
said this is right, but in Bentley clearly shows TWO pumps on 82.17 Figure
14. These are part number 251 261 467 A (small quantity) and 251 261 467 B
(large quantity). There is a very bad gas smell inside the cabin, now I'm
pretty sure I'm getting a gas leak on my fuel tank but I think some of if
could be heater related. Any thoughts?
