U7130 no glow plugs
Posted: Mon Feb 05, 2007 6:30 pm
I have a 2005 Dogdge 3500 4X4 quad cab w/ 5.9l Cummings. Been running the Predator since the truck was 2 weeks old. Only ever put it back to stock mode if it's going in for a service. I have used R18,19 and now on R22. What I have noticed since it got a little cold, is the glow plugs/plate doesn't work when ignition is turned on. They do cycle once truck has been started, but this doesn't help with starting first thing in the morning.
At first I figured it was the truck, but I noticed once when downloading the stock program the night before taking it to the dealer for a regular service, the next morning glow worked like it should. That next morning my glow light came on for like 20 seconds, unlike the quick light check I get with any tunes installed (no glow).
I then tried both performance and extreme tunes (my normal setting) and neither of them the glow plugs work. What needed to be done to work as normal.
Thanks,

PS I have a VW TDI and it fires the glow so fast, you never notice or even have to wait. This CTD fires up so well even without the glow, I have just been living with the problem.
