2003 Passenger van, 165,000 miles
The van was not driven since November. When I first started it (a 70 degree day), the dashboard glow plug light stayed on for about a minute. The next day, drove it about ten miles to town, turned it off, then restarted it and the light came back on though the motor was at operating temperature. Again, the light went off after about a minute.
I needed to have the glow plug module replaced about five years ago (back then, the glow plug light was on all the way across Pennsylvania, and I ended up with a drained battery). I understand the replacement is an improvement on the original one because it resets itself.
Any ideas what the problem is?
