Don't quite understand how a manual is going to help - by connecting power to the plugs and getting the engine to start you have shown that the plugs (bosch no is 0 250 201 032) are working. This narrows it down to either relay or switch. Looks like you need to get your hands on a working relay.

the manual would have lead me to these components and their location..............i hope and - when i get a moment i will remove the relay and check all the feeds probably have to wait till the weekend now - i might see if someone on ebay is breaking a 940 D24tic or try salvo for another relay

thanks

thanks these diagrams they do look interesting and i can see the fuse on the relay now

car is not here as the SL500 is playing naughty too the wiper is acting up and i need to fix that so my partner is driving the 945 and with the weather here she wont be swapping it for the punto as it is a 70 mile round trip over snowy icy roads

if the SL is fixed - i should know tomorrow morning - i might swap cars again and get back onto fixing the 945 before the weekend if not it will be the weekend before i get my hands on the 945

thanks for all the help here.

regards

id test the glow plug relay first check there is lives in and out and going to where there meant to. common fault on the 940 diesel is the relay

Just had similar problems with my 850.
Check the plugs are working by measuring if there is any resistance from the terminal to earth. If they are open circuit they are US.
Another way is to connect a wire to the live side of the battery and touch this on the end of the plug and look for a small spark. If you get one the plug is good. Be careful though not to touch earth anywhere i.e. the engine block or pipes...
Every one of my plugs was gone but at 117K I shouldn't moan.
Starts first touch now. Mint
