To cut a very long story short and gloss over a lot of rookie troubleshooting efforts, we put the original 'good' relay back in, and installed the new GP control card. It didn't fix it. Now armed with slightly more of an idea of what we were doing than the first time, we re-tested the original...

I think the low voltage output I originally spoke of might have been just a bad reading, as I wasn't able to get it to happen again when I tested it the second time. I'll do some more testing when I put the original relay back in and install the new card today. I tested all my glow plugs as...

I'll be using the manual button for a little while untill my new card turns up, so it's still good to know how long it needs, thanks. I removed all the glow plugs to test and inspect them last weekend and they all seem to be fine, I was concerned they might be swollen and a pain to remove but...

Well it turns out that we assumed wrong, the seemingly identical relay we bought to replace the 'broken' old one is NOT the same. It turns out that the relay we removed was an isolated ground unit, and it has 0 resistance whilst active so it seems to be absolutely fine. The replacement that...

As mentioned above, I'm getting about 10v out of the new relay with it engaged. The old one was putting out 0v. The resistor block has been bypassed and the relay is being supplied 12v. This is the TEMPORARY switch installation we were using to test and troubleshoot, don't crucify me. The two...

So, bit of backstory. Had a crank/no start issue on my 1008, wasn't even attempting to fire. Little bit of diagnosis later and we realize it's not getting any voltage to the glow plugs, even though the relay was getting 12v in, was clicking on and off as it should and the WAIT light was...
