The Bomag 05011750 Glow Control Unit is a genuine OEM electrical component designed for BW 177 D-50, BW 177 DH-50, and BW 177 PDH-50 single drum rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this unit matches the original specifications of the equipment it replaces, ensuring correct electrical output and timing for the glow plug circuit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Spec — delivers the correct voltage regulation and control timing for the glow plug circuit, exactly as Bomag engineered for the BW 177-50 series
- Direct Plug-In Replacement — connects to the existing wiring harness using the original mating connectors, with no splicing or rewiring needed
- Confirmed Fitment — compatible with Bomag BW 177 D-50, BW 177 DH-50, and BW 177 PDH-50 single drum rollers
- Cold-Start Reliability — a functioning glow control unit is essential for consistent diesel engine ignition in cold or damp conditions; a failed unit leads to hard starts or a no-start condition
- Fuel System Safety — proper glow plug control prevents excessive cranking and unburned fuel accumulation, protecting the engine and reducing the risk of starting-related faults
The glow control unit manages the timing and duration of power supplied to the engine's glow plugs before and during cold starts. It signals the plugs to heat the combustion chamber to the temperature needed for reliable diesel ignition, then cuts power once the engine is running. When this unit fails, the glow plugs receive no signal or incorrect timing, resulting in difficult cold-weather starts, increased engine wear from prolonged cranking, and potential fuel system strain. Replacing a faulty glow control unit with a genuine Bomag part restores correct pre-heat function and protects the engine from the effects of a failed ignition sequence.
