Jim, his test was valid. He measured voltage directly at the glow plug tip and found zero.

All the resistance checks in the world are meaningless if there is no voltage at the plugs. I wouldn't bother wasting time on them.

Naturally, I'm presuming that the plug was inserted in the relay end.

If the fuse has not been replaced in the glow plug relay...........now is the time to do so.

Additionally, it's time to see if there is voltage at the relay. See if you get 12V at one...........or both..........screw terminals that hold the fuse in place.
