no glow
96 7.3 turbo,96,000 miles had truck for a year, runs great in warm weather, but when it get cooler won't start. have to plug it in to get it to start.....
figured glow plugs were gone was the problem so i took rocker cover off on the drivers side and tested all four plugs by using a test light,, not sure this is correct way, was told it was a quick and dirty way. i did get a light. turned on key and tested with lite tester at rocket cover connector on the out side....no light ... it should be wire 1 & 5,,,tested all four plugs nothing.
tested glow plug relay appears to be working two small wires one stayed on the other flashed and about a minute later it comes on. with power on still no power to glow plugs.
is there another fuse or relay, wires coming out of relay is red but wires going to gp is brown....
need help as you can tell.

The PCM completes the ground to the GPR.
The 2 fusible links are located on the starter solenoid on the passenger side fender.
