Hi Rolf,

     There's a relay in there somewhere which controls the glowplug cold
start timer. Is the glow plug LED lighting when the ignition is switched
on? Sometimes glow plugs can go open. Disconnect the cable from the top
of each plug in turn an connect an ohm meter across them. They should
all read extrememly low ( <1 ohm, from memory ). If one of them is open,
it's usually enough to cause a problem. On my old DX-engined Peugeot, the
interior lights dimmed when the glow plugs kicked in and noticeably
brightened when the relay kicked back out ...

I don't know that it's glow-plug related, just hoping it's nothing worse
