Hi All

Although I have not posted much I have learnt a lot from this forum and although I changed the Glow Plug on my Aux Heater about a month ago I am now getting the following error from Vagcom.

 

Control Module Part Number 7M3 815 071

Component and/or version HEIZGB/D5W 0001

 

2 FAULTS FOUND (BOTH THE SAME)

01491 - GLOW-PLUG FOR HEATER (q9)

29-00 - SHORT TO GROUND.

 

It worked faultlessly for about 3 weeks then started smoking then it stopped working altogether, Do you think it is as it says the Glow Plug or could it be the relay that drives the glow plug (when control module 18 is open on Vagcom and if I monitor the blocks I read about 14V so I dont think the relay is the problem)I got the Glow Plug of Ebay from seller matalagrub.

 

I will try and drop the unit tommorrow as I have a day of hope it is not too cold.

 

Any idears anyone???

Sorry guys I should have posted this in the Technical section, Yes it does sound like the glow plug I will try and get to it and have a look.

 

Cheers.
