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?

According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
