[Vwdiesel] Glow plug relay

[William J Toensing]

I had that problem with my Dasher so I did it the easy way, I think. I went to our local NAPA  auto parts & got a generic starter relay, for an older Ford, I think. I wired the closed side to the glow plugs & hot side to the battery. I then installed a push button generic starter button on the dash. When cold, I push the "starter button" with my left hand for about 10 seconds, then hit the starter with the ignition switch & it usually starts right off. I think this was quicker , cheaper, & easier for me than messing with the VW timer, where ever it is, & replacing same.
