You can also leave everything connected and turn the key to the pre-glow position, listen for the click and see of the glow plugs are actually getting voltage. If it has a strip fuse on the glow plug relay you can look at it to see if it is burned or take an extremely close look at it to see if it is cracked (I had a cracked one and did not take a close enough look the first time I look).

You did not say if after charging the Battery the Engine was cranking at a normal speed.
Yes GP's are all working, all tested from the plug 0.6 ohms and no GP related codes in the ECU. It's 80+ degrees here, so car should start fine even with all bad gp's.

Engine does feel like it's cranking normal speed. I took the battery charger off at 8 am this morning, let the battery rest all day, and then measured voltage at 6 pm this evening and found 12.72 volts. So battery seems ok i think.
