I have a 2000 Toyota Hilux 2.4 TD. The glowplugs are working fine as it starts up no problem.

The glowplug light goes out aswell, but after about a minute it comes back on and stays on

Does anyone know what the problem is ? I've checked the relay and that seems fine.

Thanks,

Matt

No idea but if you get fed up you can always park it on the beach at Weston

Not sure when they were last changed but I thought it only took one glow plug not to be working to stop a diesel from starting (Mine cracks up first turn)

Typically it comes on if it sense the wrong resistance, you will probably find a faulty glowplug if you grab a multimeter and do some test.
