goaty Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Hi all, I have a disco 200tdi in my 90 and up until recently i ahve never thought about using my glowplugs, so much to that point they arent even connected. Now i have gone to see if they work etc it appears that i am not getting any power to the plugs. I tested the cable coming into the engine bay onto the first plug but the volt meter showed nothing at all. Anyone have any idea as to what could be wrong and where to look?? Relay maybe? but where is it. laso couldn't see a fuse slot for them. cheers in advance joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So unless someone added a relay when they fitted the TDI it wont have one. You know you have to hold the key halfway between IGNITION and START to heat the plugs?
