Booster Heater Diesel Pump

[cjblues]

Hi, I have a 2002 Galaxy 1.9TDi, and have had ongoing problems wirth the Booster Heater which is currently not working, probably due to fault codes in the system.

 

It did have a problem with heavy smelly grey smoke being emitted, but this was cured for a year by fitting a new glow plug. Recently though it's started again, and the small exhaust if dripping fuel. I suspect that the 'Diesel Metering Pump' is now faulty. I've suggested this to my local Ford dealer who just blanked me on this and said they recommend just changing the whole heater unit for hundreds of pounds.

 

I've tried to find on on line without success.

 

Does anyone know the Ford FINIS Code for the pump, or somewhere one can be obtained ?

 

Thanks CJB

When you replaced the glow plug was it the one with wires attached or the one with a small nut on the terminal? and did you check the gauze where the glow plug fits as these can burn away causing the plug to overheat.

If the pump is pumping the fuel then it's unlikely changing the pump will benefit, the amount of fuel delivered is controlled by the heater module not by the pump.

Check your glow plug and gauze again, if it's gone open circuit again replace the gauze and fit the ceramic plug (the type with wires attached) VW number 7M3963319A

Chris your a star You answered my query in a recent post that ive just posted but could you give me pointers, below is my original post

 

I have a 2003 Ford Galaxy Ghia, Ive been trying to get my auxhillary heater started, the fault codes indicate the flame out and lock out, when i do manage to clear codes it sometimes starts and then fails or just gives out plumes of unburmt diesel signifying glow plug issues. However when I got my mechanic to strip it down, the unit looked nothing like the Eberspacher D5WZ which has the Beru GH002 glow plug. It was cylindrical with the respective Air flow in and exhaust out ports.

 

He stripped it down and couldnt find the corresponding Beru GH002 type glow plug and re assembled back on the car before I had a chance to visit garage and take down part or model no of heater. Can you or anyone advise what type I have, I tried calling the Ford dealers and they stated that apparently I have the glow plug with wires attached that retails at £99.00,. The Ford part number they quoted was

5 TTH 1BD650 AA is there a VW cross reference ? I know from past experience VW/TPS have been 60% cheaper than Ford for spare parts, or alternatively another supplier?

 

Also if the Aux water pump in bulkhead is faulty does it throw up a fault code on VAG COM, its just that no other fault code except for Flame out came up.

 

Thanks In advance

Ive just checked that VW part number on net and its throwing up the Beru Ghoo1 type plug with 8mm nut, thats not the one that ive got apparently my one has wires attached all as one piece, ford part number is 5 TTH 1BD650 AA, ANy ideas of VW cross ref part no?

[chrispb123456]

The VW part number of the plug with the wires attached that fits the D5WZ is 7M3963319A. Eberspacher number is 25 2106 01 1000

 

Beru GH001 0100 226 340 is the correct one without wires.

How do I remove the glowplug wires from the mutli plug connector that they are connected to. Also how to i check for an open circuit on glow plug? Im not sure whether my multimeters playing up but when i set it on Ohms for resistance it displays O.L and I have tried checking the values across the plug pins for the glowplug and I consistently get 0.000 ? I have checked across the corresponding Male plug on the ECU unit and I got Values 30.7 kohms What does this signify?

[Aaron75]

I've managed to check glow plug and it's working fine, how can I determine resistance check on the ECU controller, Note I have the whe heater off the car. I have tried doing a resistance continuity test across the pins on the ECU controller on the female plug that connect with the multiplug/wires that are attached to the glow plug) and

The reading I got was 30 plus kohms, I'm not a dab hand at technical stuff, what does this value mean? Also i checked the values across the pins on the connector plug on the loom that provides the feed to the ECU,( the plug that connects to the loom from the vehicle) The values were 0.00
