Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, I was wondering if I could beg another favour - it has been so long since my last real failure! The fuse on top of my glow plug relay has gone and I cannot find any part number or supplier anywhere. Could someone point me in the right direction for the actual part or a successful workaround? I've attached a picture (hopefully) of the offending fuse.

Pretty unusual for that fuse to fail. Check the wiring to the glow plugs and the glow plugs themselves, I suspect you have a shorted glow plug.

Check the rating and Google strip fuse but check the length. 30A probably enough? Or failing that some 30A fusewire might bodge it.
As Data says, first need to work out why it blew. If you disconnect all glows, put some fusewire across it and then reconnect one at a time you will hopefully find the offending item.
Dunno if these will fit? https://www.halfords.com/motoring/t...oto-strip-fuses-30>60-amp-fuse133-705310.html

I'll have to check, but I'm pretty sure that the fuse is 80 amp.
Edit, the fuse is 80 amp.

Pretty much 12 amps per glow-plug. So 15 amp wire should do to test one at a time.
