@@StefanTolos I had "P0380 - Glow Device General Error". Glow plugs were working. Have replaced the glow plug relay. Checked the wiring to ECU, it was all good. After replacing ALL 4 glow plugs with new ones, the error disappeared. It seems that it is NOT enough that the glow plugs are "only working", they have to work in certain range of parameters (resistance, temperature). So , 4 new glow plugs solved the problem.

Hi! Your video seems so precious! But as I'm Portuguese, I can't understand what you say. Could you please activate auto translation for captions on the setting of this video here in TH-cam? I guess it would help us all on being able to activate subtitles and better understand what you say. Thank you and greetings from Portugal.
Daca tot ai desfacut acest controller, nu ai facut cumva o schema prin care sa stii ca cele doua transistori la care contacte au iesiri ? Sa le putem verifica fara a fi desfacut. Thyristori nu pot sa fie, cred ca sunt mosfeti.
Salut, Am si eu un vectra b 2.0 dti din 2000,am probleme cu pornirea atunci cand nu se aprind bujii incandescente,cand este mai cald afara.As vrea sa le fac sa se aprinda tot timpu,poate aveti vreo idee sa imi spuneti si mie cum pot sa fac acest lucru.Tin sa precizez ca atunci cand se aprind bujiile,masina porneste foarte bine indiferent daca este cu botu in sus sau in jos,nu am nicio eroare in bord.
Sa le faceti sa functioneze permanent nu este bine deloc, dar sa le faceti conexiunea pe direct este ok, dar actionate numai cateva secunde inainte de pornire si dupa aceea oprite.
Stefan Tolos Nu m-am exprimat eu bne,vreau sa le fac sa se aprinda atunci cand pun contactu,fie cald fie frig.Am observat ca atunci cand scot mufa de la senzoru de temperatura care este pe chiuloasa se aprind dar imi da si eroare, de asta caut o metoda sa le fac sa se aprinda singure la pornirea masinii si nu stiu cum sa fac asta.Cum fac conexiunea pe direct,explicati.mi daca puteti.Va multumesc pentru raspunsul atat de rapid.Stima
Pai este simplu pe alimentarea lor puneti prin intermediul unui releu temporizat cuplarea lor cand demarorul este pe on sau alimentarea lor prin intermediul unui comutator in bord sa fie activ atata timp cat vreti sa fie comutat. Toate astea implica sa eliminati modulul care le controleaza cel din tutorial. Cu placere.

@@losFondos 1) I used multi meter. I took them all out, and all had ABOUT same resistance. (0.7-0.8 Ohm) 2) Also I connected all of them to 12 V directly.and they all got hot and glowed. So I falsely assumed the problem are not glow plugs, and continued with replacing relay and checking all wiring with ECU. I checked all, and could not find anything wrong, so I came back to glow plugs, and replaced them ALL, although the seller in the shop told me I was crazy, to replace working glow plugs. But it worked, and problem was solved. It seems that glow plug relay tests glow plugs (resistance or some other parameter)
@@stewiegriffin6503 That is very helpful, my Corsa D is giving me P0683-04, the resistance of the glow plugs seems ok but I haven't taken them out. They've run for 160 th km, I think I'll just replace them and hope for the best!
which component was broken on the board ?
Maintenance preventive. Check imperfection contacts.

thank you so much, very helpful !!
I have P1635, hope it can fix the problem.
Welcome! I glad for you!

Ai schimbat sau ai curățat tranzistori, mulțumesc
Verificare contacte imperfecte.
Exista acest releu si pe Opel Meriva 2004 si unde se gaseste Multumesc.

How did you test the glow plugs in the first place?

It worked! After replacement of all glow plugs the error and the white smoke disappeared
hi i have the code 038008 do you think changing just the plugs wouid work or do you think i would need the relay thing as well thanks
la mine sta doar o secunda. ce pot sa ii fac in cazul asta?
Nimic. Este ok.
Si a mers ?
