Glow plug/controller error
Hi
I hade an error message in dis and Inpa showing glow plug no 2 fault 4222. I have replaced all 6 plugs and when tested glow plug with multi meter it was sowing as faulty the oham reading was all over the place.
I have scanned it again and still showing glow plug no 2 same fault, could this be the glow plug controller or would it show all glow plugs down if that was at fault. any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
John

I have the same issue - replaced all six plugs and almost right away one was reported as bad.
The controllers are known for being a source of issues so I have another one ready to install when I get a few hours - its tight down there. I didn't have it when I changed the plugs.
Not really a running issue yet since it will regen fine with 5/6 working.

Thought it would not regen with a glow plug down as my dpf light keeps coming on so need to get controller ASAP. Just wasn't sure if a failed controller would only show one plug down, I really should have scanned it when manifold was off when I replaced plugs

Thanks for the comments guys.
Just replaced the controller today and all faults cleared, so just need it to regen, or force one manually.

I have a similar problem (error code is: 4203), so I want to understand how to check the glows before buying anything...
Thanks:
