Glow Plug Indicator

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The glow plug indicator is located in the instrument panel cluster and informs the operator when the engine is ready to start. The indicator is controlled by the instrument panel cluster based on an electronic command signal from the PCM through the CAN. The on-time of the indicator is independent of the glow plug relay on-time. As a prove out, the indicator is commanded on at every ignition switch cycle even though the glow plug system may not be operating.
