glow indicator

We have an engine that revved at high rpms for no specific reason & also the glow plug indicator on the dash shines continuous. Could we have a faulty controller? It has a Mazda diesel engine.

Under the air cleaner is this controller & another relay. The glow plug indicator light dims when thre relay clicks & then brightens when it clicks for the second time. Is the controller telling this relay to open & close but the circuit to the indicator light is not opening?
