cold weather starting
Morning All,

Having trouble starting the Benz in cold weather, fault is saying (one or more glow plug(s) is not actuated). I have changed the glow plugs, battery and starter motor and the error still shows along with the cold weather issues. Any ideas please?
Jon

P.S. car starts first time when the weather is warm.

The code # you posted is not valid and it shows that you own a cheap code reader. You must own your own scanner to get the proper codes.

Look at all the possibilities it could be with the proper scanner.
