    There are, as far as my limited search skills have determined, precisely two videos throughout the entire universe related to glow plug replacement regarding the om642 engine.
    One of these videos is a 3 minute pile of crap, shot time lapsed, with goofy millenial music crap which teaches someone stupid like me absolutely nothing about changing the glow plugs.
    The other video is this one, by comparison, a masterpiece of easy to understand information spoonfed to me as though I were a six year old, which is precisely the only way I am able to learn stuff.
    I offer you my sincere gratitude sir! Thanks to you I can now approach the job at hand with confidence. I wish all the best to you!

      I think your review of changing and checking out and glow plugs on this jeep. Vehicle was very well done, the information was at a good pace, and the information provided was complete without eliminating steps. This makes it all very clear for a novice mechanic. One item I suggest is a little more light on the subjects. Trying to see the glow plug down in those holes was a bit of a stretch with the light provided. All I know I gave you an 95 out of 100.

    • @sharock23c
      @sharock23c  8 років тому

      If I was you I would not get a jeep. Especially a diesel. I am not impressed with ours at all. The diesels are expensive to maintain and very expensive to repair if anything goes wrong with the engine. The fuel mileage is not very good due to the fact that it has a DPF system on it. The 4 wheel drive low on ours quit working and the only time I used it was to drive it up on the ramps when I did an oil change. I would hate to see how long it lasted if I actually drove it off the road once. Trail rated is what it sais on the side. My old Cavalier outlasted this thing. Just some of my thoughts.

    • @sharock23c
      @sharock23c  8 років тому

      I'm fortunate enough to be a diesel mechanic and can fix most of the issues myself. If I had to pay someone every time this thing broke down it would have cost me more than the initial cost of the vehicle and its only got 160,000 km on it.

      Miria, I have had to spend money to keep my Jeep GC in tip top shape, but I do really love it and haul lots of weight with it and recently made a custom mount for my snowbear snow plow blade. sharock23c may not have had as much luck with the 4WD as I do, but I have not had issues with my 4low or 4hi yet (knock on wood). I take my GC into the woods every time I have a chance.

    • @sharock23c
      @sharock23c  8 років тому +4

      $2000 for the module seems outrageously expensive. Even from the dealership there not that much. Where was this mechanic from? You could change the module and every glow plug including diagnostics for under $2000. I have worked a few different places and dealer ships and seen a lot of customers get ripped off. Even I'm scared to take my car into the dealer ship for the bullshit they will try pull and I'm a master certified mechanic. I'm making these videos so people can see what is actually involved in the diagnostic process and can hopefully do some repairs themselves and not have to go to the shop.

      +sharock23c I'm having this exact problem with my 08 Diesel. Reader shows 1850 VPW. Module Voltage. Does this mean the control module is faulty? Or should i go through all the steps in the video? Great video by the way.

    • @martinolsen2924
      @martinolsen2924 8 років тому +1

      +Grogor1 1850 vpm would be the protocol used to communicate with the ecm. there should be a fault code like P0xxx or P1xxx. But if it's a module power supply lost fault and there is power on the large wire I would suspect the module. I have a module I split open and it burnt the wires off inside. If you have lost power on the small key power wire you will get a glow plug module lost communication fault because the module is not powering up. Hope this helps.

    • @Grogor1

    I can see how to replace the glow plug module from your video. Thank you. I'll do that and it should be fine; cross fingers.

    • @sharock23c
      @sharock23c  5 років тому

      If you tested each glow plug pin and get the proper resistance then the module is more than likely bad. The original modules were not very good. If you are worried you could try and swap a glow plug from a bad hole to a good hole and see if the problem moves.

    • @austinmudd9752
      @austinmudd9752 5 років тому

  • @djw6850

    Hey sharock, are you sure about pin 6 being the ground? When I check for voltage on the module pins(with just the power plug connected to module and neg meter lead to battery ground) I have power on all the glow plug pins plus on pin 6 but not on pin 5. Are you sure it's not pin 5 that is ground and pin 6 12v?

    • @martinolsen6369
      @martinolsen6369 2 роки тому

      I looked up the wiring diagram at work just now. And yes 6 is the ground. If your seeing power where there should be ground I would double check battery connections, eng block ground, chassis grounds. I would suspect there is a different grounding issue that might be a root cause.

    The fault codes you have at 1m59s are wrong, at least on my 2008 JGC Laredo. P0675, is cylinder 5, and is in the location you say is at P0673 in the diagram at 1m59s. The diagram at the end of the video, at 25m45s is correct, cylinder 5 (P0675) being passenger (left side you facing the truck) side, closest to the firewall.

      Its a nice vehicle to drive. The fuel milage averages around 13-14 MPG. Not that great as my one ton dodge pickup with a 6.7L diesel gets 14-15 MPG empty. Since we got this jeep. Its needed a TCM (transmission control module) that also needs to be programmed by the dealership. So that problem the dash would light up and wouldnt shift gears. Next the ECM went. Then the Glow plug module. Have done 2.5 sets of glow plugs. The jeep we got is one of the "trail rated" ones (I have little faith in these off road packages). Being trail rated the steel fuel tank is protected by a plastic tub. This tub holds all the dirt and little rocks and moisture around 3/4 of the tank and is the perfect combination to rust it out in no time. Then it threw faults for turbo boost pressure issues. Ended up being the turbo actuator that controlls the variable part of the turbo. This part is not sold separately from the dealership and requires the turbo to be changed. At a dealer cost of $9800 for parts. I found an actuator on amazon for $180. Installed it 3 years ago and works great. I want to make another video on this. Then usual stuff that all vehicles go through. Our neighbors have the same jeep same year and model with the 3.0L diesel. I am a mechanic so I fix there stuff to and it has had the same problems. But with there jeep the turbo compressor inlet pipe has a silicone seal which comes apart and damages the compressor wheel. Then its new turbo time. Dealership price for the turbo at the time was $9800. Plus labor. I called alamo turbo and i think it was 4500 from them. Call in a few favors and got it for 2500. Still excessive as we put turbos on semis at work with 15 liter engines for $750. There is an updated inlet pipe from the dealer for this problem. I like the jeep but if i wasn't a heavy duty mechanic that can fix my own things this would have been a horribly expensive vehicle to own. I would stay away from a diesel jeep unless you understand these inside and out. Just my experience. Hope this helps.

      As far as I know the glow plugs are powered by a duty cycle that changes. Not just a constant voltage. So trying to measure DC voltage will probably give you erratic readings. But I could be wrong. I havent actually checked to see if it is duty cycle or not.

    • @sharock23c
      @sharock23c  5 місяців тому

      If all 6 were actually open at the same time I would be a little worried that the module has a problem and burnt out the glow plugs. But it could be that maybe 3 out of the 6 are bad and they want to change all 6. If the glow plug circuit is open there should be a fault code logged for each one. Then the wire for each one should be checked to see if it can hold a load. If it can and the glow plug is good then the modual is at fault. I cut one of the modules open and found the tiny wires inside melted off that supply the power to the glow plugs.

      If the data line is disconnected then it should throw a fault for unable to communicate with the glow plug module. If the car is warm enough it wont cycle the glow pluggs. I wonder if there could be a problem with a temp sensor and the car thinks its warm enough and does not need to cycle the plugs.

      It might. We call them in range faults. So if the sensor is reading between a set parameter it wont throw an actual fault. If you can get a hold of a scan tool and see what the reading is. We let the vehicle sit over night and then make sure all the temp sensors read the same. Then if you got one reading 30 or so deg above the rest then you know to check that sensor and its circuit.

    In your circuit diagram you show a fuse between the module and the ignition. Is there actually a fuse and if so, where? I cannot find any fuses on my 2007 3.0 that are glow plug module related.

    • @sharock23c

      James Mapledoram I don't know exactly which one it is but it will be in the Fuse box that's under the hood. most fuses protect several circuits but they tend to only list one or two in the manual. Need to get a hold of the actual circuit diagram. I'll see if I can find which Fuse it is tomorrow.

      Troubleshooting a U0106 (communication with Glow Plug Control Module) on a 2007. Started occurring right after replacing the fuel filter. So, we already checked / cleaned the ground wire.

      James Mapledoram So I found a diagram. It sais that Fuse 43 in the under hood Fuse block powers the glow plug module on pin 5. it's a 25 amp Fuse. It also power the water in fuel sensor pin 2, crank case vent heater pin 2, intake swirl servo motor pin 2, EGR valve pin 2, boost pressure servo motor pin 2, and pin 86 of the fuel pump relay, and ecm pin 3. I would check for power at the crankcase vent heater and if you have power there but not at the GPCM pin 5 then there has to be a broken wire somewhere on the way to the module.

      Peter Geralis. Not all ways. One side could be open and the other could be shorted to ground or other wires with shitty contact causing high resistance on one side. Just depends on what side is checked. An open is high resistance. Its considered infinate in the automotive world. It's that these shitty automotive style multi meters don't have the range to measure it.

      sharock23c ok misunderstood not the whole circuit, but one wire yes. I also under stand that even a really good meter can't really accurately check resistance on anything lower than 1 ohm. But if you unplug the gpm and the wire had chaffed to an open and backprobed the suspected cylinder it would be OL. I meant to specify that.

      I think the cylinders are mislabeled as well.

I had 2 plugs together come up with a code at the same time which is odd as I would only have 1 at a time. I going to follow your testing to make sure it is actually the plugs. I keep spare glow plugs but not the module. I have now 197,000 miles on my 08.

În last time I seen I lose oil u Der the car I was in a service the figure it out its come from oil cooler. So I go I service they change all seals from turbo from cooler oil. From everywere. They cleaned my gallery and hole place from where cooler oil stay. Then they put everything back. When all was done, I start the motor it was smoke.....but car start pretty good. I run the car all day it works... but the next day when I wanted to start the motor car didn't start no more. I hear the motor want to start but it die in few seconds. I call the guys from service a guy come to my parking place and he start my motor with a spay. He said problem come from my egr valve bcz it s durty. .... and idk what to think about. Befor this cooler oil changing. My car start good every day. He told me about a sensor witch can get durt and he also said if I wanna start motor to take out the water sensor...... do u think they can be right?
