Glow Plug Relay?

My Jimmy doesn't want to wake up. The "wait" light for the GPs comes on, goes off and I key it. It'll crank like a tornado, but nothing happens.

When it's cranking, it sometimes sounds like it's about to start, but no dice. What I have noticed is that the "wait" light doesn't come back on.

When I can get it to wake up (of course, on the relatively warm days that we get in Colorado Springs), it cranks and starts like I expect it to.

So, glow plug relay or controller? Both are damn near brand new: I replaced them less than a year ago, and because the damn thing is cursed, I have put maybe 2000 miles on it since then.

The plugs (Bosch) are new, too.

It's getting fuel.

The air filters (2 stacked until I can figure out how to lean-out the IP) are clean.

Thanks
