Ooh that hurt. Hang on... my brother's bigger than your brother. Is that a grown up enough response?

Dont matter what car it is i will try and help..Check your relay.i think your find the glow plugs dont have power after the engine has started.or if they do it is only for a very short time. >Dont matter what car it is i will try and help..Check your relay.i >think your find the glow plugs dont have power after the engine has >started.or if they do it is only for a very short time. Ok thanks, I have swapped the relays around & it still dont seem to do it, there`s just no power to the glow plugs when engines been running for a few minutes. Do you know any other websites that could help us??? thanks again mate. I think that is normal.relay cuts out after engine has started. so there will be no power at glow plugs.this will help. The plugs are eletrically-operated before and during start-up when engine is cold.Electrical feed to the glow plugs is controlled by a relay/timer unit.the glow plugs provide a "post-heating" function whereby the glow plugs remain switched on for a period after the engine has started,Once the starter has been switched off, the glow plugs begin a 3-minute "post-heating" cycle.the operation of the plugs cannot be cancelled for the first 15 seconds, |
