Question Glow Plug taking longer to turn off......

Hey folks!
I have 2011 F350 6.7 with 243k miles. (Had 213k when I bought it 2 years ago - have ALL the maintenance records) The glow plug light would turn off pretty quickly, now it's taking much longer to go off. Is this a sign of an issue in my near future?

TIA for any & all help!!

Have you checked to see if there are any stored codes? If you do not have a code scanner, go to local parts house such as Advance or Autozone and gt them to pull the codes. You might have some glow plugs going bad. Or maybe the controller?
