First off, what year of a truck do you have? How long does the wait to start light burn for? Also what brand of glows did you use? The first two threads at the top of the page will tell you every thing you need.
The 83-86 trucks are the old style, 87 and later or the new style.

The relay for the 94 non turboed is located on the controler, which is behind the air intake, center on the rear of the engine. Factory turboed models the controler was located on the passenger side valve cover. GPR 109 is the relay needed.
