| Briskodian | Re: Glow plugs check With my 1999 Octavia 1.9 AGR engine the ECU does not sense faulty glow plugs (only one of mine currently works and I get no fault codes....) My glow plug harness has two wires going to it (each of which splits inside the harness to feed each glow plug) Harnesses that have four wires going to them should diagnose glow plug issues (I think) As should pumpe duse engines Best Darren |

| Briskodian | Re: Glow plugs check Mercedes Diesel Glow Plug Repair shows some glow plug testing procedures for a Mercedes. not all relevant but gives an overview of how to test For skodas start by testing the resistance (ohms) of each plug. pop the wiring harness off the glow plugs and test between earth and the end of each plug. |
