How We Find the Cause

Hard cold starts on a diesel often point to glow plugs. We test each glow plug's electrical resistance, scan for glow plug controller codes, and inspect the glow plug controller (which often fails before the plugs themselves). Broken-off plug tips require careful extraction.

What Not to Assume

A glow plug warning light isn't always failed plugs , often it's the controller, the wiring, or the relay. We test before replacement.
