Can you elaborate? Ever done that on a humvee?Solid switches are the way to go..Or a manual flick switch works well also.
If you do this mod you had better hide the button. Not for security per se but to keep the glowplugs alive.Another bonus with this mod is that we can hide the glow button which will essentially add security to the truck, unless it's been driven and still warm lol. Okay scratch that.
The new boxes really don’t have issues. The older boxes do have a pretty high failure rate. Many of those failures can be traced back to poor grounding. You can dramatically prolong the life of the older prestolite boxes by adding a grounding harness.I would love a plug and play kit for this. If this box does cause as many issues as I've read then I would rather replace it with a better options.
I didn't bother hiding the button. The factory control box is much more competent at burning out the plugs than a random button pusher in my mind. Have to wonder how they ever designed something like that. It's a military vehicle, common sense dictates you design a failsafe into it.If you do this mod you had better hide the button. Not for security per se but to keep the glowplugs alive.
If you have someone come along and fat fingers it for 20 or 30 seconds then they have smoked your plugs and you get to start changing them again.
People aren’t really smart and kids don’t think know better. It’s a good mod, I did it on a cucv, but you have to be on the lookout for the low IQ operators.

yes it will, you also have a starter lock out function in it and a starter relay natural start function is wired in to it. you can crank the engine off sand t terminal on the steice plug but there is no natural start function it would also start in gear.So y’all think if I leave the box out completely that it will affect any other systems?
