HI ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRICIATED!

MY CAR WONT START AND THE GLOW PLUG LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON. I REPLACED THE GLOW PLUGS LAST YEAR.

COULD IT BE THE FUSE? IF NOT ANY OTHER IDEAS AND HOW EASY TO FIX?

1.) Wrong forum-this should be in technical.

2.) Why the shouting in block capitals?

In this weather the car should start without glowplugs. When you crank it over, does any white smoke emerge from the exhaust pipe? If not it is almost certain that fuel is not getting to the injectors.

Could be a failed solenoid.

Could be a blocked fuel filter

Could be an air leak somewhere in the fuel system.

Can't really be more specific unless you give more etails about what you have already tried.

If the glow plugs are not working but all else is OK you should have white smoke coming from the exhaust when you are turning it over.
