Glowplug light
Hi all, wonder if you advise. Just had an engine rebuild done which was not a happy experience and on taking the vehicle back , see that glowplug light on dash doesn't switch off. Everything else, engine worked fine and got me home (one mile). Is there any significance to this? The garage said that I should have my fuel injectors overhauled and put in a second hand one. Any thoughts gratefully received, cheers, J

I'm not sure what model you have but the glowplugs will be controlled by a timer relay and a temperature sensor on the head. Maybe there is a short somewhere? Look for pinched cables or anything that's not plugged in.
