Mend Vauxhall Vectra 2.2 Cold Start Thought

My Vectra 2.2 diesel cold start dont work?

My 2.2 vectra is dificult to start. The cold start light does not come on so I thought it was the control unit next to the battery. I changed that but no joy. There is no current to the glow plugs when I turn on ign. Is there another control unit which sends info to the main control unit.

Could well be the glow plug relay or the glow plugs themselves. If not, its probably corroded wires on the ecu terminal
