1. I would have thought so - that's a lot of current to put through a normal switch. 2. Pass Have you tried putting a voltmeter between glowplug and earth and turning them on? When I had problems, I got no voltage - that led to a discovery that the spade had dropped off the ignition switch. Another way to check, is if you have a good voltmeter (I now have a LCD one permanently connected, to 0.01volts) - then the act of tuning on the glowplugs will cause a voltage drop - I get about 0.8V drop as I turn the glowplugs on.
