Has the radome been removed (particularly if it was right around the time you started to have the glide slope problem)? The glide slope antenna is built into the radome, and the cable to the antenna must be disconnected to remove the radome. Sometimes it doesn't get reconnected when the radome goes back on. The other thing to check would be the splitter that is somewhere between the antenna and the two radios, probably right behind the instrument panel.
