So, the latest adventures of dumbo has left me with the top end of an engine off, and wondering if there were any codes for the glow plugs :5SHOTS:

This is the semi trashed CRD I got and I knew there were a ton of codes, but didn't think about the fact that now would be the time to deal with the plugs. If I reconnect the battery, will the codes all be gone, and if so, if I cycle the glow plugs a couple of times, will that suffice to generate a code? I'd just toss the ones I have lying around, but I don't have any 7v's sitting around, and don't want to wait to order a set. Plus, I got screwed on this deal anyhow, and don't want to put any more time or money into this thing. I just want the plugs to operate properly.
I really should have thought of this prior to installing the ARP's just in case they are still ceramic :banghead:

Thanks for any advice or harassment :mrgreen:

If they are bad and the engine and/or outdoor temp is cold enough for them to come on...then you will get a code in under 30 seconds. I have one bad one and it pretty much lights the CEL on every restart if I clear it.

Many thanks Wolverine! I didn't want to try cycling them with so much disconnected unless it was worthwhile.
