1.Check that the battery
voltage is 11 - 13 V.
|
|
2.Check that the engine
coolant temperature is 40°C or less.
note |
If the engine coolant
temperature is too high, disconnect the engine
coolant temperature
sensor connector.

3.Measure the resistance
between the glow plug plate and the glow plug body
(earth). Standard value: 0.15 - 0.25
Ω (at 20°C)
note |
The resistance value is the
parallel resistance value for the four glow
plugs.
|
4.Connect a voltmeter between the glow plug
plate and the glow plug body (earth). 5.Measure
the voltage immediately after the ignition switch is turned
to ON (without
starting the engine). Standard value: 9 -
11 V (Drops to 0 V after 4 - 8 seconds have
passed) In addition, check to be sure that the
glow indicator lamp illuminates
immediately after the ignition switch is turned to
ON.
note |
The time during which the
voltage appears (energising time) will depend on
the engine
coolant temperature.
|
6.Measure the voltage while the engine is
cranking. Standard value: 6 V or
more 7.Start the engine and measure the
voltage while the engine is warming up. However, if the
engine coolant temperature rises above 60°C or when
180 seconds
have passed since the engine was started, the voltage will
always return to 0 V (Refer to the
Glow Plug Energisation Timing Chart). Standard
value: 12 - 15 V
