glow plug dash light

Hey guys,
I just finished replacing my glow plugs, I tested the entire system according to DieselGiant, and now the car starts perfectly. The only problem is that my light inside is still not coming on. Are there any other places I should check before pulling out the cluster to replace the light?

Thanks,
-Berty

Can you check voltage to the bulb? If you have a wiring diagram, you should be able to attach to wires that lead to the buld, and put a volt meter to them.

It takes 15minutes to do the bulb tops. you dont even have to undo anything in the cluster. Just pull the plastic under piece and pop out the cluster and you should have enough room....

Please let us know the outcome. A burned out bulb is almost never the issue.
