• Are you sure they are actually on or is it just the light in the dash?

• Test light from teh glow plugs to the negative battery post...when i unplug the main power cable to the motor the test light goes off...I have no dash lights

• Sounds like a bad relay then.
  
  Have you pulled it?
  
  Pull it out then check for power at the GPs.
  
  I'll bet they are all burned out now though Wont affect power of course but once you get this taken care of I'm betting you will need to replace them.
