Default Focus TDCI 100PS Glow Plug Question

Is the glow plug timer built into the relay.

I've been having troble getting the foucs to start in the morning. When you put the ign on the glow plug light only stays on for about 0.5 of a second so im guessing the timers had it.

I rung fords and asked for a relay and they told me it was £3.50. Surely that can't have the timer built in with it too?

cheers

p.s. Its a Mk1.5 52 reg.

cheers

Ask ford to look on the listings, see if it lists a seperate timer, I would imagine it is seperate at that price though!!
