My check engine light was on on and my ScanGauge II reported error codes P0673 and P0380. I cleared the codes and the check engine light hasn't returned for the past day.
Searching the archives indicates P0673 is a glow plug fault on cylinder #3.
P0380 is a little more confusing. I found some posts indicating this was a crankshaft position sensor fault, some posts indicating a glow plug circuit fault, and some posts indicating an intake air heater relay #1 control circuit fault?
I've read through all the posts about the unreliability of glow plug circuit faults, the dos and don'ts of testing and replacing glow plugs, and the modified glow plug circuit with external fuses. Current plan is to see if the faults return, and if so, dig into the glow plugs and glow plug circuit.
