Red face Glow Plug Relay

Hello, I have a 200 F250 7.3 Powerstroke. This is the 4th winter I have had it. Have about 75000 miles on it. Two winters ago I was having trouble with it starting. Took it to a dealer and they changed the GPR. They convicned me to buy and carry an extra one, they said that these tend to go often especially during the winter. . Just the past few days, having the same problem, no doubt it is the GPR. Only problem is when I went to change it, I noticed that there are two of them and I haven't a clue of which one is actually the GPR. Which one do I change, the front or back?? they both look the same ...or do both have to be changed... thanks, Ken

Mines the rear one. The other is the Manifold Intake Air Heater. Look for the one with the yellow wire on it crimped to the brown/yellow wire. It's the one you want. The manifold one has two big red wires on it.
