Glow Plugs
The diesel engine has glow plugs, controlled by the ground
module to assist in cold starting.
The Ground Module calculates the length of time the glow
plugs are energized prior to startup based upon ambient tem-
perature, engine coolant temperature, and battery voltage.
Refer to Table 3-5, Glow Plug Conditions.
The glow plugs are deenergized if:
• The Engine State is Engine Cranking, Engine Starting,
Engine running
or
• The Emergency Descent Mode is activated and Lift Down,
Tower Lift Down, or Jib Lift Down are active.
If the STARTER LOCKOUT option is enabled in the Machine
Setup, the Ground Module will not allow an engine start
attempt until the glow plug time has expired. If this option is
not enabled, the glow plug time can be interrupted and an
engine start attempt can be made. Starter Lockout is only
applicable for the first glow plug cycle.
Ambient Air Temperature Sensor
The ambient air temperature sensor is integrated within the
Ground Module. The sensor provides temperature information
the engine control system uses to set its fuel, spark, and air set-
tings for engine starting in cold environments.
