I'm not sure what you are looking for but my F-250 has a fusible link where the feed for it comes off of the starter relay on the passenger's side fender. I don't know where the GPR relay coil gets its power from, I'm not finding a fuse for it.

If his fusible link is blown I don't think that will work.

What issue are you having? The GPR doesn't have a fuse The relay is commanded on by the PCM through a ground.

Here is a link to my Glow Plug Page.

If your relay has power and the glow plugs are not working it could be a bad relay or the PCM ground.

And I'm not so sure it's a glow plug indicator light but I am not familiar with the heavier trucks. In ours it's just a 'wait to start' light, which just serves as a reminder for us to hold off on hitting 'start' while the glow plugs warm up. That light goes off after about 15 or 20 seconds but glow plugs remain hot for up to two minutes, depending on engine oil temps and ambient temps.
