Understanding the Glow Plug Relay in Your Ford Fiesta
The glow ignition system is a critical component in ensuring the smooth operation of diesel engines, particularly during cold starts. At the heart of this system in your Ford Fiesta is the glow plug relay, a component designed to provide the necessary current to heat the glow plugs efficiently. Ensuring that your Fiesta's glow plug relay is functioning correctly is essential for reliable engine starts and overall vehicle performance.
Significance of the Glow Plug Relay in Electrical Lighting
While the glow plug relay might seem unrelated to the electrical lighting system, it plays a vital role in the electrical circuitry of your Ford Fiesta. The relay acts as a switch that controls the power supplied to the glow plugs. When it malfunctions, it can lead to issues with starting the engine, especially in colder temperatures. It's crucial for Fiesta owners to recognize the symptoms of a failing glow plug relay, such as difficulty starting the engine, to avoid being stranded or facing more significant engine problems.
Choosing the Right Glow Plug Relay for Your Ford Fiesta
Selecting the correct glow plug relay for your Ford Fiesta is paramount to ensure compatibility and optimal performance. It is advisable to opt for a relay that is specifically designed for the make and model of your vehicle. For Fiesta owners, this means choosing a relay that corresponds with the engine specifications and year of your car. A precisely matched relay will ensure that the glow plugs receive the correct amount of power for efficient operation.
Replacing Your Ford Fiesta's Glow Plug Relay
Replacement of the glow plug relay in your Ford Fiesta should be done with care. If you're experiencing issues with your vehicle's starting system, it may be time to inspect the relay. For those who are not mechanically inclined, it is recommended to seek the assistance of a professional mechanic. However, if you have experience with car maintenance, you can purchase the right glow plug relay for your Fiesta and undertake the replacement yourself, ensuring to follow the manufacturer's guidelines.

What is a Glow Plug Relay?
Glow plug relays are a part of the ignition system in diesel cars. When you turn the key in the ignition, the glow plug control unit analyses input from the ECU to determine the timings and currents required by the plugs in order to start the car. The glow plug relay then switches the current for the glow plugs on and off accordingly, causing them to heat up rapidly and ignite the fuel in the engine.
As an essential part of the glow plug ignition system, the relays must fully function at all times, especially during cold weather. Here, you’ll find a fantastic selection of replacement relays at competitive prices, so you can get your car working again for less. To find the right type for your car, just enter the registration number in the box above, and confirm the make and model.
Please note that in some diesel vehicles (especially older models), the glow plugs may be spread across two circuits with two glow plug relays, so check how many you need before buying.
