P0380 but glow plugs OK?

I have a CEL and code P0380. Searching this forum points to the glow system. The glow light comes on for about 5 seconds or so before starting, and the car starts easily when it goes off. The glow light stays off, but the code has come back several times now after I cleared it (I thought maybe I didn't let the plugs glow long enough before driving, but I doubt that now).

I pulled the plug that goes into the relay socket and tested the continuity of each plug. They all show 1.0 ohm. So they seem OK.

What do I check next? Could my relay be getting flaky? Or can P0380 mean something else?

Thanks,
