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.
