    I'll try it I think I have one laying around the garage. Will the relay of a glow plug controller work? I think I read they were basically the same just glow plug was stronger.

    idi glow plug controller need help fast please

    So you don't have power to them at all now? Follow the harness to the connection on passenger side of truck by the heater core box. Common place to burn the wires. Also u could try bumping the two bigger terminals on the relay with a screw driver. That's gotten me home several times.
