Clicking after Start

[M1009 Fiend]

Im sure i read about this somewhere but can someone help. After the my m1009 turns over i get a clicking for about 15 seconds and it sounds like it is coming from behind the dash.

Is this normal? Or do I need to replace something?

Any Help welcome thanks.

When the motor is cold, the truck does a "afterglow" cycle on the glow plugs until things warm up a bit.

It sounds like a solenoid click ~ 5 to 7 seconds ~ click again, correct?

Then it repeats in 15 - 20 seconds...

what happens if it clicks all the time

Only when moving possible speed cable
When running, parked or moving possible bad glowplug controller....(card)

I have always wondered.....do the glowplugs stay on after engine is running?? (when cold of course)

No its not just when its cold and it is a consistent clicking.

And its parked and moving right, after i start the 1009, idk nothing lit up and once i got home stopped turned her off and then started again the same clicking....
