Troubleshooting

Engine fails to start in cold weather

Check if the glow plug warning light illuminates on the dashboard. If not, inspect the glow plug wiring and fuse. If the light functions but starting is still difficult, the glow plug itself may be faulty and require replacement.

Rough idling after starting

This could indicate one or more glow plugs are not functioning correctly, even with the after-glow feature. Check all glow plugs for proper operation and replace any that are found to be faulty.

Glow plug will not unscrew

Do not force the glow plug, as it may break off in the cylinder head. Apply a penetrating oil and allow it to soak. Gentle heat or a specialized glow plug removal tool may be required. Consult a professional if unsure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Verification:

Before purchasing, it is essential to verify compatibility with your specific vehicle model. Use the provided OE/OEM numbers (0100226495, 93183739, 8970805540) and consult your vehicle's service manual or a trusted parts catalog. Cross-referencing with your vehicle's existing glow plugs is highly recommended due to potential variations.

Installation:

  1. Ensure the engine is cool.
  2. Locate the glow plugs in the cylinder head.
  3. Disconnect any wiring from the old glow plug.
  4. Using a 12mm spanner, carefully unscrew the old glow plug.
  5. Clean the glow plug bore if necessary.
  6. Screw in the new Blue Print GN103 glow plug by hand to avoid cross-threading, then tighten with the 12mm spanner to the manufacturer's specified torque.
  7. Reconnect wiring.

Care:

Glow plugs are wear items and do not require routine maintenance. Their lifespan is dependent on usage and engine conditions. Replacement is typically only necessary when starting issues arise or a diagnostic check indicates a fault.
