Problems with the glow control unit despite replacement

Longer cold start time

Hello everyone, I have a problem with my BMW 5. The engine takes longer to start from cold. I had the error code 004203 for the glow control unit and then installed a new glow control unit. Unfortunately, the error code is now appearing again. Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this or what I should check next? Many thanks in advance for your help!

Check the glow plugs themselves, as they might be faulty or not receiving power. Ensure all connections are secure and test each glow plug for proper resistance. Let us know how it goes or if you have further questions!
