I drove to work this morning without a hitch. At 3pm when I was leaving, crank, no start. WTF ?!?! I crank again. Nada. Third time I finally notice that there's no glow plug light. I go under the hood and trace the wires to a big black box on the drivers wheel well. I pop the cap off it and find this:

Looks to be a bi-metal strip that disintegrated. I laid a key across the terminals and I had the glow plug light for it's usual 3 seconds and she fired right up. Is that strip replaceable or am I looking at replacing the box/relay ?
