Hello all,

When i start my ranger, the glow plug light doesn't light up anymore and this has been since a month now. I don't have any issues starting the car in the morning. It starts straight away. Grateful if you can help?

Thank you & stay safe!

It will depend on ambient air temp also.

Have you checked for and DTCs?

Hi Stewart, it’s currently winter here in Mauritius. No DTCs.

No idea then. You could do some current draw tests on the glow plug module which is in front of the battery on radiator support, apart from that I have nothing.
