you mentioned after a minute the indicator goes on, the motor starts then dies afterwards.. first of.. you "may" have problem with your glow plug if you are having cold start problems.. BUT.. if your engine dies after having it started, then you may have other issues like fuel delivery issues since your engine doesnt stay running.. get the glow plugs tested first, to eliminitate that problem... its easy if you can access it... use an ohm meter and test if you have busted plugs... replace if found to be busted..

as for the dying engine after it started.. eliminate the small possible culprits... low/no fuel, clogged fuel filters, dying fuel pump... when was the last time you replaced your primary filters (does the MB van have two filters?) if you dont know when it was last replaced, replace them...this may just be a simple matter of fuel starvation due to clogged filters.

good day po new here sa forum

and sakto naman ito din problem ko thats why hanap ako sa mga forums..

ung po kasing pre glow light indicator ko laging umiilaw coming from cold start pero after few minutes po nawawala din..

hindi naman po ako nakaka experience hard starting even from long drive tapos off engine hindi naman po hirap mag start ung MB100 pero every time na mag start ako laging iilaw ang pre glow light indicator.

so ano po kaya ang problem?what shud i do?

tapos po posible po kaya na ito din ang nag cause ng pagkasunog ng fuse ng AC ko?kasi po while cruising sa nlex the other day napansin ko parang wala akong AC blower lang so checked ko agad wala nga po ako ac..so naisip ko check ung mga fuse and then i found out na nasunog ung fuse ng from blower ko..so i replaced it ganoon pa din then replace ko din ung fuse ng AC ayon gumana po ung sa likod nagkaroon ng AC sa likod pero u ng sa harap po wala pa din even the blower then just to find out na sunog ung fuse ng front blower...

tapos po replaced ko ulit ung fuse ng AC ayon gumana na ung sa likod ko..kaso lang after few minutes namatay ulit meaning sunog ulit fuse...

ano po kaya problem?

sorry po ang haba..

ngaun palang po salamat na sa lahat ng response nio...

the glow plug indicator is not just an indicator stating that your glow plugs are working. It is also an indicator that 1 or a couple of plugs are busted, depending on what the symptoms are.

A long standing glow plug light may mean:

1) it has an after glow cycle to keep the plugs heated to have an instant smooth start (at least this is how it is in most newer MBs)

2) it may mean that a there is a busted plug or two. Check the conditions of your plugs and if all are in working order. 1 busted plug may not cause you to have hard starting since your van may probably still have good compression. A good diesel car with good compression with 1 or 2 busted plugs can still start easily.

As for the fuse being busted... yugn glow plug ba at yung AC wired under the same fuse link? sorry not really familiar with the MB van fuse layout.

Sir,

Also got problem.. looking for forum regarding this,, my MB100 is hard starting din, malakas naman po and redondo ng engine pero ayaw magtuloy, regarding battery, ok naman po kasi bago pa battery ko. already replaced fuel filter, di naman po nangangain ng langis, regarding naman po sa takbo nya wala naman po pagbabago including sa hatak., another thing na napansin ko is di agad umiilaw yung heater indicator ko, yung parang coil simbol sa dash board, mga 1 to 2 mins pa sya bago umilaw, but once it turns on, ganun pa din, medyo hard starting pa din.. mga 3 to 4 times ko sya iniistart ng puro redondo lang bago mag start indicating that my engine is waiting for some heat or something to ignite,,, tapos bubuga ng sobrang usok pag-start.. pag naman po tumakbo na yung engine tapos pinatay ko.. lagi na po sya 1 click for starting wag lang po matetengga ulit ng mga 5 hours up dahil ganun ulit ang mangyayari,,, di po kaya heater ko or heater relay ang problema??? di ko din po kasi alam kung saan nakalagay ang heater relay ng mb100 and what it looks like.. di ko po binabalingan ang fuel pump ko kasi di naman po ako kinakapos pag nanakbo na eh...
Needing help po sa mga experts sir.... thanks and god bless...

Ana114,

every time ka mag on and mag start iilaw talaga yang glow plug indication, then mawawala. Its normal.

Now about your A/C walang kinalaman si glow plug dyan. Nasunog yung fuse then pinalitan mo fuse, nasunog ulit. Ibig sabihin me short circuit ka sa A/C electrical mo. Ganun talaga yun. Yun ang trabaho ng fuse, masusunog muna siya bago yung equipment na binabantayan niya.
Pa check mo yung A/C mo. Im sure me short circuit some where.
Cheers! All the best!
I hope this helps.
