If the relays actually shorted out and keeping the glow plugs energised, that would drain the battery PDQ and cause all sorts of problems. However low battery voltage can also give you false readings.

Your Amazon fault reader may not connect with your ecu's. The early l322 was very picky about it's diagnostic software. Sometimes some of the systems can be read by going through bmw and then x5. No guarantees it'll work with your diagnostic tool
