V50 Electrics : - Please can someone help

Hello there sorry to bother you all I’m having a bit of trouble with my Volvo v50 it’s a 2010 2.0 diesel I took it to a mechanic and he plugged it in and came up saying the glow plug relay so I left it with him and he phoned me up the next day saying he had stripped half the car looking for the glow plug relay and couldn’t find it anywhere so I went and brought a Haynes manual thinking that would tell me but all that said was fuse 6 glow plugs so changed that and it blew the fuse straight away so I’m thinking maybe there is a relay somewhere but just can’t find it and just wondering if anyone knows where I could find the glow plug relay is (sorry if this question has already been asked)
Thanks

Not sure if it is the same on the later ones?

Hi Iain
Thanks for your reply but I checked there and it’s not there I think that’s where it’s located on the pre facelift I don’t know where else to look now cars giving me a headache

It should be in the under bonnet fuse box beside the battery

Thanks Dancake I will check in the morning I think your right as I was reading the Haynes manual and it said the later model had a relay in the fuse box but there was no diagram of the relays just the fuses
Thanks again
