6.5TD motorhome starting problem

Will L.: I plugged the engine heater in for 11 hours. Checked temp on both sides of engine at one glow plug. Passenger side at 95 degrees. Driver's side at 120 degrees.
Turned key to on....glow plug stayed on for 5 seconds (probably due to heat in engine). Usually stays on for 10 seconds. Turned key to start and it took maybe 3 or 4 seconds...just like my car.
Please remember I installed a new glow plug controller and 60G glow plugs.
Let me know what to try next? (Maybe glow plug wires are going south?)
Thanks again for all your help!
