For a complete wiring diagram Refer to Section 8W


  • When Monitored:

    With the ignition on.

    The ECM detects a malfunction on the Glow Plug Module Signal or Glow Plug Module Control circuit.


Possible Causes
 
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE
 
GLOW PLUG MODULE
 
GLOW PLUG MODULE SIGNAL/CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN
 
GLOW PLUG MODULE SIGNAL/CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND

INTERMITTENT CONDITION
 




Diagnostic Test

1.CHECK FOR ACTIVE DTC

NOTE: If the ECM detects and stores a DTC, the ECM also stores the engine/vehicle operating conditions under which the DTC was set. Some of these conditions are displayed on the scan tool at the same time the DTC is displayed.


NOTE: Before erasing stored DTCs, record these conditions. Attempting to duplicate these conditions may assist when checking for an active DTC.
