    Wait to start light ?

    Assuming you have good glow plug card, plugs and air temp sensor. Should the light go off right before the solenoid or half way through the cycle? Right now my light stays on for roughly 12 seconds but the relay is still active for another 12 seconds? shouldn't they be matched?

    Glow plug card question

    Did some researching and it seems that people that have a bad card have physical damage. Can you have a bad card that is not burnt? I swapped cards to verify if I had a working card and I did not. No physical damage.
