Glow Plugs

The glow plugs are small heaters provided to assist in cold starting. Glow plugs have been redesigned to have PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) properties (low resistance at low temperature and high resistance at high temperature). The glow plug module controls all circuit functions.
