Also, and I have seen this more than once, if the batteries are just plumb worn out, the starter will not disengage, even with the key off.
Sounds strange, but it's true.
If replacing the relay does not fix it, you will need new batteries.

I got it fixed. I changed the starter solenoid. The batteries are about 6 months old. Now I need to put new glow plugs in...TX Ed
