    Cucv m1010 resistors check and replace / bypass?

    It won't work in the CUCV glow plug system. With the case grounded and applying 12 volts to the S terminal it will close the relay. Which means glow plugs always on.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Looking for help - Tcase Blew Up

    WOW! So just how did that fail like that? Glad no one got hurt from loss of control from parts removing themselves. I heard of a rocket crash described as a RUD event. Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly.
