I have a 2001 Mazda Bravo with 2.5 TD. The problem is the glow light in the dash goes out about 5 seconds before the glow relay clicks out and the glow rack stays positive until the engine warms up. This only happens on cold starts as everything is perfect when starting at running temperature. I have put new glow plugs in.

SOURCE: Problem with cold starting Ford 7.3L Diesel at > freezing temps

most likely the relay. its located to the left of the fuel filter( looking at the motor from the front). my experience is that they only last about 50,000 miles. the part costs about $20 at an navistar dealer. remove the cowl over the filter, disconnect the batteries(so you don't short the new relay out if you cross the polarity with a wrench) ,remove the four wires from the ceramic relay, un-fasten the relay from the base. reverse the process with the new relay. CAUTION; do not over-tighten the nuts on the wire studs, you could crack the ceramic relay.(iv'e done it) . hope this helps

SOURCE: we have just put a new head in mazda bravo 2.5 td

dear friend-it sounds like you are having a circulation problem,when the engine has reached normal working temp feel the two radiator hoses they should be the same heat,also check the water pump to see if the impeller is not loose,it is not to say that the radiator is clean after a flush,it must be opened to clean.

How do my glow plus work we you turn key

when you turn the key on a light on dash goes on and the glow plug relay supplies power to the glow plugs for a certain amount of time, then the dash light goes off and you start the engine.

Dash lights work but do not glow as bright at they once did. Dimmer switch works fine. The section of the dash lights where the vehicle mileage should illuminate does not work at all. Checked all fuses....

bulb is busted sometimes they place bulbs which are rubber coated so in time they tend to dim the best way is remove all the bulbs and replace with led you will see the difference

Cold start problem mazda 2001

Could be the fuel pump relay, or a faulty pump, or pressure regulator.
The fuel system is supposed to hold pressure after you turn the engine off. A faulty pump or pressure regulator could allow fuel to drain back into the tank overnight. You would need to crank the engine for several seconds to build pressure back up.
The relay could be faulty and not giving the fuel pump power until the oil pressure comes up.

1985 300sd glow plug indicator light

Check the silver flat fuse on glow plug relay cover (driver inner fender/black plastic).

Make sure the two plastic connectors are clean and on tight.

There is one temp. sensor on the block. Near glow plugs 1 and 2.

Make sure the connector is on tight.


If the car starts after 5-15 seconds of glow time then you should be find.

It can be a burn out indicator or glow plug relay is on the way out.
