I have a 2k1 Jetta, It has been coding for glowplugs for some time now. I have done the steps in the glowplug 101 and I found out that I have a bad glow plug. I did this before and replaced one, I guess I should have replaced all of them. I did the test for the relay because even after I changed the bad plug and harness and checked the resistance I still got the code. I took the harness off and checked the resistance again and all the plugs were fine. I checked the voltage coming through the harness and it read something like .204 volts. I bought a 50$ glow plug relay and replaced teh old one. I know a relay is either on or off because I have replaced many of them in a kiln I have. But I still only get about .204 volts. I have an automatic transaxle and could not find the temp sensor or the coolant glow plugs but I did wait until about 6 am to test, as I live in Wa and even in the summer its been about 45. I just did it and all I get is .204 volts through the harness. All of the fuses on the battery are good, I even checked all of the 30 amps in the fuse panel--one was burnt out but it didnt help to change it. Now I have another bad glowplug and I am going to replace all of them today, I fear this will not solve the problem because of the extremely low volts going into the harness. Can someone please post a wiring diagram of the glowplug system for me, or offer some advice of what to check next. I beleive I have exhausted the 101 reference. Thanks in advance.
