NOTE:
Incorrect measurements will result if all glow plug connectors are not disconnected.
The glow plug monitor self-test is a KOER functional test of the glow plug system. The self-test is carried out on-demand with the engine running and the A/C off. The PCM will activate the GPCM which monitors the glow plugs. The pedal may be used to increase the engine speed to increase voltage if needed. For fault detection, the self-test requires a fault present at the time of testing.
