[diesel_mercedes] Re : Glow plug question

 

Inside the left front fender panel is a rectangular box with a snap off lid ~

This is the glow plug relay and one end will have two phillips screws holding a thin metal 50 Ampere (IIRC) fusible link ~ test this with your test light first , both sides must be live .

Then wriggle the plug to ensure it's well connected....

Once in a while the relay goes kaputi , most often the phillips screws get loose or corroded .

Valves have been adjusted within last 1000 miles so I know it is not that. Fuel filter also changed 100 miles ago. Car is smoking so I know she is getting Fuel.
