Question Check Engine Code - Glow Plug Low Voltage

Hey guys (and gals),

Alternator went out on Monday.
Blew a 30 amp engine fuse on Tuesday.
Check Engine Light came on on Tuesday.

When diagnosed with a monitor, it said low voltage to Glowplugs such-and-such on Bank 1 and 2. Anybody ever heard of this and know of a simple remedy? Truck starts and runs fine.

Thanks

Paul

My 97 did the same thing it was the glow plug relay, it still worked but was not transfering 100% of the voltig through it.Just enough to kik the code. I replaced it, problem solved.The other thing that poped up after that was the batterie light came on, took a little while to figure that one out with the help from the guys from this site. The single wire plug on the altinater had a bad conection, cleaned it, all was good. Hope this helps.
