Glow plugs relay tripping out

1999 Citroen Berlingo 1.9D
Car: Citroen Berlingo
Year: 1999
Variant: 1.9D
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Help Please!!!
My Berlingo has developed an annoying problem which started off occaisionally now wont start at all.
When I turn the key to heat plugs the Relay trips out so they dont heat.
At first I thought this was the Relay so I replaced this and it was still the same.
I checked plugs with an ammeter and they were all giving off the same ampage.
I also tested the leads from the relay to the plugs and these were ok also.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
