Glow Plugs - How to Manuall Glow

Table of Contents

The factory glow plug timer will be active for ~15 sec, then switch off. Sometimes this is not enough time. To manually activate the glow plugs, turn the key slightly past ‘run’ towards ‘start’. You should hear the glow plug relay activate with a soft click, and the volt meter drop. You can also do this once the engine is running, to help it warm up faster on very cold mornings.
