In the Haynes manual it says to test the glow plugs with 12v. Maybe that's why the 'glow plugs on' message didn't come on then.
Anyway, it's on charge now so I'll try again tomorrow
Going out once a week to charge the battery will only discharge it.---
Go to the thread the---really-really useful-- section.----I've got several useful posts in there about batteries and how to look after them.
