I have a 1980 240d. The glow plug indicator has quit. The light comes on when I crank the starter, so i know it's not the bulb. Is there a temp sensor? Any ideas? I don't think the plugs are actually glowing. Where's the contoller? How can I check?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Break out the ohm meter and check the glow plugs. Good ones will read about 0.6 ohms cold. Check the fuse while you're in there too.

Lots of info in the archives.
