Urgent help - Glow plugs/starting problem

Post by n_dorphin »

Hey,

I have just finished changing my glow plugs.
Upon trying to start you can help a solinoid click.
Normally this would stay on for a while.

It will not start also.

Where did I go wrong? Everything I thought went back the same way it came off.

HELP

Do you mean HEAR a click? Can you hear it click on and off or just on?

Make sure you put the plastic bushes in the right spot on the main strap for the glow plugs. This will blow the fuse if in the wrong way. Have mad the mistake myself.

Thanks guys,
After rechecking everything I could find no fault.
The solenoid to supply power was only clicking once and not remaining on to power up the plugs.

Anyway I have checked the supplier website and found they supplied the wrong glow plugs.

I have now replaced the items with the old ones.

89 Pajero swb 2.5TD is the car.
