I recently took the clusters out on my 2.5td (1998) and replaced bulbs with leds instead. Left a regular one for the engine light as I read that one might otherwise drain the battery. But what's up with the glowplug light. I tried a led, and with that one it continuously glows faintly. With a regular bulb it doesn't light up at all, even if the manual says that if the temp is below +10c one should wait for the glowplug light to turn off before starting. But today it was around +8c here in the morning and it still didn't glow.
I know the bulb is working as I tested it in another slot in the cluster... what can be at fault?
Many thanks in advance for any help or ideas!
