I have bad cold starting on 8540. Changed control box 12 months ago. Had another look today.... I get voltage all the time ignition is on from this control box to the glowplugs. Dashboard light goes out after 20 secs. pre-heat; but voltage too plugs is constant all time engine is running and cold start is only possible with Bradex easy-start. Are glow plugs shot and /or controller box (which is not cheap @100) ?
