Glow plug testing?
Posted: Sat Jan 09, 2021 3:55 pm
Hi there - I have a J11 2015 QQ. I have all the faults these models give most people, I have now just gone onto a 4th battery and this normally cures the sluggish starts, white screen etc.....It didnt today.
Almost didnt start this morning.....granted its cold....but when it does this, it kicks out a small amount of fumes from the exhaust which is evident visually and you can smell it. This happened about 14 months ago also and my mechanic swapped the glow plugs but then we didnt have a cold morning really to test if this had cured it?
I'm just wondering if there is any easy check to test these glows plugs thats all.....I have a multimeter but couldn't find a decent guide? If anyone could link one that would be great.
Thanks for any help.
