to anyone with the next step, I was driving the car died with no warning. Looked through the posts and saw the glow plug light option and thought that was it. Replaced the 109 relay and the same problem. no glow plug light. Is the next unit the ECM. I will be looking at fuses tonight although they checked good I will recheck to verify. Ideas welcome.:confused:

All gone
Check fuse 32 and the ignition switch. Does terminal 15 work at all? Do you see any indicator lights when you turn on the ignition?

I tried fuse 32 it is good, i am not sure what you mean by terminal 15. All lights are on but the glow plug light recently stopped when the car died. Could a bad glow plug cause this?
