4) System Operation
Glow plug is installed in the cylinder head. It enhances the cold starting performance and reduces the
exhaust gas during cold starting.
ECU receives the various signals such as engine rpm, coolant temperature and vehicle speed through
CAN communication lines. GCU controls the pre-heating, cranking and post-heating operations and
monitors the glow plug. If GCU detects a problem, it sends the result to ECU.
(2) Operation of AQGS
Duty control area:
Between 5 and 100%
Frequency: 20 Hz1.

(1) Characteristics of temperature and current in AQGS
FET (similar to transistor) for each cylinder in AQGS unit pre-heats the glow plug.
If the glow plug temperature reaches to target temperature, the temperature is controlled by
duty ratio. 1.

AQGS PWM ControlActual voltage pattern
AQGS unit supplies the power to glow plug. This shows the voltage and time
supplied by AQGS by steps. As shown
on the graph, the supplied voltage is
decreased as the steps are continued.
The 3rd step is to keep the temperature,
not to raise it.
Frequency: 20~33Hz
PWM Control duty ratio
- 1st step: 100%
- 2nd step: 35%
- 3rd step: 23%
