Awesome, sounds like the controller is doing it's job, replace the relay and it should work if the Glow Plugs are good.

Awesome ... Glad I could help!

If I may make a pushy suggestion, ensure it has Motorcraft/Beru ZD9 Glow Plugs in it now that it's working we don't want any other brands exploding tips.

Personally, I would pull everyone of them and ensure that!

-Enjoy
