Maintain reliable cold-weather starting performance and proper combustion efficiency with the genuine Mopar 68460484AB Glow Plug for 2014-2019 Ram 1500 and 2014-2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles equipped with the 3.0L EcoDiesel engine. Designed to meet strict OEM specifications, this factory glow plug delivers dependable heating performance for smoother engine starts, improved emissions control, and consistent diesel operation.
The Mopar 68460484AB glow plug helps preheat the combustion chamber during cold starts, allowing the 3.0L EcoDiesel engine to ignite fuel more efficiently in low-temperature conditions. A failing glow plug can contribute to hard starting, rough idle, excessive smoke, poor fuel economy, and check engine light conditions related to the glow plug system.
Manufactured using high-quality OEM heating elements and corrosion-resistant materials, this direct-fit glow plug is engineered for long service life and reliable operation under demanding diesel engine conditions. Unlike lower-quality aftermarket alternatives, genuine Mopar glow plugs maintain proper resistance values and ECM communication for optimal engine management performance.
This OEM glow plug replaces previous part numbers 68211173AA and 68460484AA while maintaining factory compatibility and durability standards for EcoDiesel-powered Ram and Jeep applications.
