I've suddenly had start up issues with my fiat doblo.
It turns over but hasn't got enough guts to get going. This has lead to me breaking down once , got taken to a garage who checked everything over and found no faults. They left it a day and half and it started up first time and proceeded with checks.
I have since plugged the doblo into a computer and had the code p0380 plate heating / thermostat relay come up. Checked all four glow plugs with a multimeter and they were testing as mega ohms so open circuit and dead.
It's now done the same thing again, turning over but not starting or cuts out. notably I haven't used it in three days and it's been very wet but not too cold. Is it definitely glow plugs or could it still be the relay? Darent book it in to spend more money on a 170k mile vehicle if it isn't the correct issue.
