This has happened twice now. I’ve gotten in the truck and when I went to cycle the glow plugs, it was like they had already started the cycle. Normally, I will turn the key to on and the plugs will come on for 5ish seconds. I can hear the clicks as they switch on then off. Then they will turn on and off intermittently for no longer than a second each time. This happens over the next 30 seconds. The owners manual said this is the normal cycle, so I wasn’t very concerned. Starts right up every time. Unless it’s about 15 degrees. Then I turn the key off for 60 seconds and reset the cycle and it starts just like normal. This is also what I read in the manual.
What’s changed lately is that when I go to cycle the plugs the first time, it’s like it begins in the middle of the normal cycle. (Turn key on. No plugs. Then plugs on and off for no more than a second each time) I can then turn the key off for 60 seconds and it will reset and they will cycle like normal. And start just fine.
Any ideas on what’s going on?
