Glow Plug (Diesel models only)

The glow plug warning lamp is illuminated by the ECM and the instrument pack software. The glow plug warning lamp illuminates in an amber color when the ignition is moved to position II. There is no bulb check function for this lamp.

The lamp is illuminated by signals from the ECM which equate to the time which the glow plugs are energized. When the glow plug heating time is complete, the lamp is extinguished. The lamp illumination is accompanied by a message, 'PRE HEATING', in the message center.

The glow plug warning lamp also serves a second function for the EDC system. If a major EDC system fault occurs when the engine is running, the glow plug warning lamp will be illuminated permanently and a message generated in the message center. The driver must seek attention to the engine management system at a Land Rover dealer as soon as possible.
