On the verge of exploding...
#1
Its a shame the cars a diesel, otherwise that would be first.

After replacing my glow plug relay a few days ago, Ive apparently managed to pop it again. RESULT.

Now, ive got a multi meter handy, could someone tell me how I can check to be sure its popped?

Thanks..

Get the meter on the glow plug rail and turn on the ignition. The reading should be 12v on all the plugs for about 20 seconds. You should then hear the relay click and the voltage drop to zero.
