Yobbo Dave Last Online: Sep 7th, 2023 11:33 Join Date: Apr 2016 Location: East Yorkshire	Glow Plug System Mystery V50 D5 Cold weather. Starting more or less on compression. Glow plug/s must be shot! VIDA says ECM-6661... So it's either Glow Plug no.1 or the Glow Plug Control Unit/Relay, OK. Buys 5 new (correct specced - 7v) glow plugs Problem still remains, fair enough. Buys Glow Plug Control Unit Problem has been resolved, no faults in VIDA. Hooray! 3 days later, problem is back. Oh nooooo... I know! Check the 70amp fuse in the engine bay. Fuse has continuity. WTF At this point I'm concerned that the replacement Glow Control Unit has been somehow fried... Yet to test the wiring but couldn't see any corrosion, on the glow plug connectors. Anyone got any advice or experience? __________________ V50 D5 'Thor'
