Glow plug control unit

[blackbird]

Hi , starting issue.

2010 2.2 diesel

Replaced glow plugs .

Replaced glow plug relay.

Obd fault code says glow plug control unit.

Not a clue whereabouts it's mounted as took long enough finding relay..

 

Any clues or pictures of it.

 

Many thanks

Did a google search and a few images on there but also found this video and not sure if its relevant to your situation

Thanks for reply..

Vehicle came back yesterday from BAE and is showing no faults and have been told it's a mechanical issue and not a electrical issue..

Difficult to start first thing with some white smoke.

Restart 2 minutes later and no problem..

Drives normal once started.

Only time a problem is first start.

I am sure it's going to be a real issue when the season changes.

Fingers crossed
Also, worth checking the fuel filter and replace if necessary
You can tell that its an issue if the rubber bulb at the filter housing is soft and takes a few pumps to stiffen up then the engine usually starts straight away afterwards
