I can find out on Monday when the shop is open. The glow plugs are the parallel wired Bosch duraterm type. I installed the kit about a year ago. Normally with the 70 degree temp as we have this morning, preheating is not required to start the car. I can start the car just by activating the starter as soon as I pull out the starting switch.
After activating the starter for a few seconds, the wires between the glow plugs feel warm which indicates to me that some current has flowed. Obviously, it doesn't tell me anything about individual glow plugs.
