control units

The Control Unit is one of the 2 components of the Instant Start System for cold starting operation. A Control Unit works co-jointly with an electronically controlled glow plug serving the purpose of speeding-up the ignition process, and rendering it more efficient, especially in very low temperatures.

How exactly is your cold-start function supported? What does a Control Unit do?

The Glow Plug Control Unit is fitted with a microcontroller which will define information such as timing and the electric current to be supplied to the glow plug. It is generally located directly on the engine, in order to have a direct connection with the Engine Control Unit and therefore transmit data on air requirement, speed, injection quantity and engine temperature to the Engine Control Unit, more easily, over a Bus system.
