4. QUICK-ON START SYSTEM
PREPARATION
1 Disconnect the thermoswitch connector.
2. Determine whether or not the glow plugs are receiving power.
a) Make sure that the starter switch is “OFF”.
b) Connect a voltmeter between one of the glow plugs and the cylinder wall.
c) Move the starter switch to the “ON” position.
The voltmeter needle will show the souse voltage (12V) if the glow plugs are receiving power.
If the voltmeter needle does not move, the glow plugs are not receiving power.
3. Perform the troubleshooting procedure.
