Hi,
I think I have a problem with my fuel heater. Symptoms are the glow plug light does not come on when I turn on the ignition. Up until this morning, I have only had the car a month, it has started fine. I assumed it was just the bulb. Today we have a frost and the car has been outside, it is usually in the garage, it took a lot of cranking before it started.
I started to investigate the fuel heater system. As far as I can tell there should be a fuse and relay in the under bonnet fuse box. I have the fuse and it is fine but I do not have the relay! There is not even any wiring in the socket it should fit in. This has confused me as it is a UK car so I assume it should be fitted with a fuel heater.
Am I looking in the right place for the relay? Any suggestions as to what I should check next?
Thanks
