Ute is at workshop for new brakes, pads and rotors, and engine mounts but now has additional problem.
When tried to start yesterday morning to go to workshop, had to continuously crank as glow plugs did not work and mechanic has confirmed there is no power to relay or fuse. First and only time this has happened.
Has anyone had this problem before and if so what is solution.

Page EC-11 shows that power supply to the glow plug relay comes from a fusible link. The control for the relay goes to pin 111 on the Engine Control Module.
Page EL-269 Shows the fusible links behind the cranking/ main battery. Hope that helps.
My advice is: not to follow my advice.

Thanks.
Ute is still at workshop but they said yesterday that they checked both relay and fuse. Auto electrician is supposed to look at it today.

Update. It appears that the ECU which controls glow plugs and fuel pump timing (not fuel volume as pump is mechanical) might be the problem. Unfortunately sparky can't get there until Monday afternoon.
I see Patrolpart hast new ecu for $1850 so I hope it only corrosion or similar issue on the wiring in or out of unit.
