"If it is preglowing ok..." leads me to ask if you know if it is pre-glowing OK, and how?

The pre-glow lamp will not light if 2 or more plugs are bad, or of #1 is bad. The relay will click on and off regardless how many plugs are bad.

We need to find out if it is indeed the lamp, or some glow plugs that are bad.

Let's be sure before we replace a light bulb, and a relay, only to find some other problem.
