What is the primary function of a glow plug relay?

What are the dimensions of this relay?
The dimensions are approximately 110 mm in length, 80 mm in width, and 41 mm in thickness.
How many connectors does this relay have?

Troubleshooting
Engine fails to start in cold weather
Verify that the glow plug warning light illuminates on the dashboard. If not, the relay or associated components may be faulty. Check all electrical connections to the relay.
Glow plug warning light stays on longer than usual
This could indicate a fault with the relay or the glow plugs themselves. A mechanic should diagnose whether the relay is malfunctioning or if one or more glow plugs need replacement.
Engine misfires or runs rough on startup
A failing glow plug relay might not be energizing the glow plugs sufficiently. Ensure the relay is correctly seated and all connections are clean and tight.
